Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum

BARSTOW COLLEGE
INTERSEGMENTAL GENERAL EDUCATION TRANSFER CURRICULUM (IGETC)
Completion of all requirements in the Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC) plus additional transferable course work to total 56 semester units will permit a student to transfer from a community college to a campus in either the California State University of California system without the need, after transfer, to take additional lower division, general education courses to satisfy UC or CSU general education requirements, If you choose not to follow the IGETC or you do not complete it before you transfer, you will need to complete campus-specific general education/breadth requirements after you transfer. IGETC is most helpful to students who know they want to transfer but have not yet decided on a particular institution, campus or major. The IGETC is not ideal for certain majors that require extensive major preparation, particularly those in sciences and mathematics. Students choosing to transfer are strongly encouraged to see a counselor since four-year college requirements vary widely and are subject to change. The course requirements for areas 1 through 5 must be completed before the IGETC can be certified. All courses must be completed before the IGETC can be certified. All courses must be completed with grades of C or better. Although courses my be listed in more than one area, they may be used to satisfy the requirement in only one area. UC certification requires that Areas 1 through 5 and the foreign language requirements be completed. The last community college the student attends before transferring to UC or CSU is responsible for certifying completion of IGETC course work. Partial IGETC certification is available.
