43 Transfer Information & Requirements 2017-2018 Catalog Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC) to CSU and UC The Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum is a general education program that California community college transfer students may use to fulfill lower-division general education requirements for any California State University (CSU) or University of California (UC) and many California private colleges and universities. This curriculum provides an alternative to the CSU General Education- Breadth requirements, the UCGE/Breadth requirements, and many private colleges’ general education requirements. It is important to note the IGETC is not an admission requirement, nor does completion of the IGETC guarantee admission to the campus or program of choice. The IGETC is most helpful to students who want to keep their options open—those who know they want to transfer but have not yet decided upon a particular institution, campus, or major. Certain students, however, will not be well served by following the IGETC. Students who intend to transfer into a major that requires extensive lower division preparation, such as engineering or the physical and natural sciences, should concentrate on completing the many prerequisites for the major that the college evaluates to determine eligibility for admission. A counselor or a UC/CSU/private college admissions representative can advise which path is best. If you choose to follow IGETC, we recommend that you complete all IGETC requirements before you transfer. Otherwise, you will need to satisfy the specific freshman/sophomore level general education requirements at your transfer university. Reedley College may grant partial certification of IGETC for students who are missing no more than two requirements. The student will complete the missing requirements after transferring. See a counselor for information about IGETC. Additional courses may be added to the Reedley College IGETC. An updated IGETC may be obtained from the Counseling Office, the Transfer Center, the Reedley College web site, or www.assist.org.
