Transfer to University of
California (UC)
Transfer Requirements of University
of California (UC) for California residents.
Students who have enrolled in college beyond the summer
following their high school graduation are considered transfer
students and must meet transfer admission requirements. The
requirements described here represent minimum academic
standards students must attain to be eligible for admission
to the UC. Meeting the minimum eligibility requirements
does not guarantee admission to the campus or program of
choice, which often requires students meet more demanding
transfer selection.
Lower Division Transfer Admission
Requirements
Students are eligible for admission with fewer than 60 UC
transferable units completed if they have met one of the two
following options:
1. Students who were eligible for admission to the
university upon graduation from
high school, meaning that the
Subject, Scholarship, and Examination
Requirements were satisfied, or students
were identified by the UC during their senior year
in high school as eligible under the Eligibility in
the Local Context (ELC) program and completed
the Subject and Examination Requirements in
the senior year, are eligible to transfer if they have
a “C” (2.0) grade point average in their
UC transferable college coursework.
2. Students who met the Scholarship Requirement
but did not satisfy the Subject
Requirement must take UC transferable
college courses in the subjects they are
missing, earn a grade of “C” (2.0) or better grade
in each of these required courses and earn
an overall “C” (2.0) average in all UC
transferable college coursework to be
eligible to transfer.
Upper Division Transfer Admission
Requirements
Students are eligible for admission with 60 or more UC
transferable semester units (90 quarter units) if they fulfill
both of the following criteria:
• Complete 60 semester units of
UC transferable college credit with
a grade point average of at least 2.4
(no more than 14 semester/21 quarter
units may be taken Pass/Not Pass),
and:
• Complete the following seven course pattern,
earning a grade of “C” (2.0) or better in each course:
• two UC transferable college courses
(3 semester units each) in English
composition; and
• one UC transferable college course (3
semester units) in mathematical
concepts and quantitative reasoning;
and
• four transferable college courses (3
semester units each) chosen from at
least two of the following subject areas:
the arts and humanities, the social and
behavioral sciences, and the physical
and biological sciences.
Notes: Students who satisfy the Intersegmental General
Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC) prior to
transferring to UC may satisfy the seven course pattern of
the upper division transfer admission requirements.
A maximum of 70 UC transferable semester units earned
at community colleges may be transferred to the UC.
Coursework completed above the 70 units may be used to
satisfy GE and major preparation even though the units will
not count toward the bachelor’s degree.
