Frequently Asked Questions

The IGETC (Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum) is a pattern of courses that students can use to satisfy Lower-division General Education (GE) requirements at any California State University (CSU) or University of California (UC) campus. However, completion of the IGETC is not an admission requirement for the CSU or UC, nor is it the only way to fulfill lower-division General Education requirements before transfer. Students should contact a counselor for detailed information.

  • Focus on only two classes at a time.
  • Follow a guided pathway to complete your transfer requirements.
  • Take most of your classes online.
