42 Transfer Information & Requirements
2015-2016 Catalog
• A grade of “CR” (credit) or “P” (pass) may be
used if the grading policy of the community
college states that “CR” or “P” is equivalent to
a grade of “C” or better. The UC will allow no
more than 14 semester units taken CR/P toward
UC eligibility or IGETC. The CSU campuses
vary on the number of units they allow. Check
each college’s catalog or see a counselor for
more information.
• Courses may be used only once to satisfy one
subject area even if they are listed in more than
one subject area.
• Advanced Placement (AP) tests completed with
a score of 3, 4, or 5 may be applied to the IGETC
as long as the community college recognizes the
AP exam to be equivalent to its IGETC approved
courses. One AP exam may be applied to only
one course requirement. (Example: AP English
Comp and Literature may be used to satisfy
ENGL 1A or 1B NOT both.) Courses completed
at the other California Community Colleges will
be place on IGETC according to how they
were approved at the college they were completed.
• All IGETC coursework does not have to
be completed at the same college. Courses taken
at more than one California Community
College may be used to fulfill the IGETC.
Note, however, that courses applicable to
IGETC may vary from college to college.
• Additional information regarding the
acceptance of IGETC at specific colleges
in each UC is available in the “UC Answers
for Transfers” booklet in the Transfer Center or
online at
admissions.
• The IGETC is not a good option for
students intending to transfer into high-unit
majors, such as engineering or the sciences,
which require extensive lower
division preparation.
• See a counselor to make sure that the IGETC
is appropriate for your use or if you have any
other questions regarding the IGETC.
• Additional courses may be added to the
Reedley College IGETC. An updated IGETC
sheet may be obtained from the Counseling
Office, Transfer Center, Reedley College web
site, or
Transfer to Private/Independent
and Out-of-State Colleges and
Universities
Transfer requirements of the private/independent and out-
of-state colleges and universities differ from one institution
to another. Students should acquaint themselves with the
current catalog of the college to which they plan to transfer
for admission, general education, and major preparation
information. It is up to the receiving institution to determine
application of credit. The Reedley College Transfer Center
has a library of catalogs for student use as well as computers
with internet access for college websites and catalogs online.
See a counselor for assistance.
