Transfer Information & Requirements
2015-2016 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
students choose to follow the IGETC they must complete
it to have if fully certified otherwise they will be required to
satisfy the lower division general education requirements of
the UC/CSU/private college or university. Some campuses,
however, will permit a maximum of two requirements to be
unmet prior to transfer. Completion is required upon transfer.
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
