California State University General Education (CSU GE) Breadth Requirements
There are several ways that a transfer student may fulfill the CSU and UC lower-division general education requirements prior to transfer. Depending on a student’s major and field of interest, the student may find it better to take courses fulfilling those of the transfer campus or college to which the student plans to transfer. Students pursuing majors that require extensive lower-division preparation may not find the Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum or the CSU General Education Certification option to be advantageous.
Students are urged to consult the CSU or UC campus catalog; consult with their FC academic counselor; and use the FC Counseling Resource Center or the Cadena/Transfer Center to obtain additional information regarding CSU and UC campus specific transfer general education course patterns and lists.
NOTE: For CERTIFICATION - CSU GE Areas A1, A2, A3 and B4 must have grades of C- or better
NOTE: For GRADUATION - CSU GE Areas A2 and B4 must have grades of C or better
NOTE: Courses appearing in more than one area may only be counted in one area.
