UC/CSU
These designated courses are transferable to the campuses of the University of California and the California State University system. Those courses that are not marked UC are not transferable to University of California campuses. Copies of the UC transfer course list indicating credit unit limitations are available in the Transfer/Career Center on all three colleges. When in doubt, students are advised to confer with a counselor.
Course Identification Numbering System (C-ID)
The Course Identification Numbering System (C-ID) is a statewide numbering system
independent from the course numbers assigned by local California community colleges.
A C-ID number next to a course signals that participating California colleges and
universities have determined that courses offered by other California community colleges
are comparable in content and scope to courses offered on their own campuses, regardless
of their unique titles or local course number. Thus, if a schedule of classes or catalog
lists a course bearing a C-ID number, for example COMM 110, students at that college
can be assured that it will be accepted in lieu of a course bearing the C-ID COMM
110 designation at another community college. In other words, the C-ID designation
can be used to identify comparable courses at different community colleges. However,
students should always go to www.assist.org to confirm how each college’s course will
be accepted at a particular four-year college or university for transfer credit.
The C-ID numbering system is useful for students attending more than one community
college and is applied to many of the transferable courses students need as preparation
for transfer. Because these course requirements may change and because courses may
be modified and qualified for or deleted from the C-ID database, students should always
check with a counselor to determine how C-ID designated courses fit into their educational
plans for transfer.
