IGETC Q&A
The Intersegmental Committee of the Academic Senates approved the
Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC) in Fall 1991.
The IGETC is a series of courses that community college students can use to
satisfy lower division general education requirements at any CSU or UC
campus. The majority of the units must be completed at a California
community college.
The Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC) will permit
a student to transfer from a community college to a campus in either the
California State University or the University of California system without
the need, after transfer, to take additional lower-division, general
education courses.
Completion of the IGETC is not a guarantee of admission or a requirement for
transfer to a CSU or UC, nor is it the only way to fulfill the
lower-division, general education requirements of the CSU or UC prior to
transfer. Students may find it advantageous to take courses fulfilling CSU's
general education requirements or those of a particular UC campus.
Interested students should contact a counselor for further information.
