C:\ARTIC\CSU\GE\CSU_GE_13-14_AD.doc (GK: 04/10/2013) MINIMUM ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS FOR CSU TRANSFER STUDENTS:

1. Complete 60 semester units of transferable college credit (courses numbered 1-199) with a GPA of at least 2.0

2. Complete a minimum of 30 semester units of college courses with a grade of “C” or better in each course to be selected from courses in English, arts and humanities, social science, science and mathematics at a level equivalent to courses that meet general education requirements. The 30 semester units must include courses that satisfy CSU GE Areas A1, Oral Communication; A2, Written Communication; A3, Critical Thinking; and B4, Mathematics / Quantitative Reasoning.

Completion of the CSU GE Certification Pattern will satisfy the course requirements for the minimum admissions requirements listed above (#2). Although not required for admission to the CSU, students are encouraged to complete the CSU GE Certification Pattern prior to transfer. For impacted or competitive CSU campuses and majors there may be additional requirements such as completion of specific major courses, completion of certain general education courses by certain semesters, and/or higher grade point averages (see a counselor for advice).

CSU GE CERTIFICATION:

“Certification” means that College of the Sequoias has verified that a student has completed the lower division general education requirements for the California State University. Certification is important because without it students will be held to the general education requirements specific to the CSU campus to which the student transfers. Courses from other colleges and universities may be considered for certification by petition through a process called “pass along certification”: 1) courses taken at CSU campuses, participating private colleges and universities**, and other California Community Colleges will be certified in the subject areas (AREA A - E) approved by the institution where the courses were taken, 2) courses taken at other regionally accredited colleges and universities will be certified only if the course is determined to be equivalent to a course in a California Community College Certification Pattern. Courses deemed equivalent would be certified in the areas (AREA A - E) in which the equivalent courses have been approved.

**Participating private colleges and universities include: Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising, Heald College, Humphreys College, Marymount College, and San Joaquin Valley College.
