GENERAL INFORMATION REQUIREMENTS 2014–2015 (TRANSFER INFORMATION) This plan is a 41-42 unit pattern designed for the student planning to transfer to the California State University system. Southwestern College will certify course work completed at another California community college or any institution that participates in certifying general education course work to the CSU, including a CSU campus other than the one to which the student is transferring, only if the courses are on the approved CSU general education list at the college where they were completed. Such a course will be certified in the general education breadth area that is shown on the official certification list for the institution at which it was taken.

When course work has been taken at a regionally accredited institution that does not maintain a CSU certification list, Southwestern College can certify the course work provided that Southwestern College faculty determine that the course work is equivalent to course work on the approved Southwestern College general education breadth list. Any category of required general education courses not completed at the time of certification will have to be fulfilled according to the requirement of the transfer institution. Students who desire to transfer to one of the 23 California State University (CSU) campuses must complete 48 units of general education breadth courses, of which nine shall be at the upper- division level. Southwestern College can certify only the 39 lower-division units of general education breadth courses.

GENERAL INFORMATION (IGETC) 2014–2015 UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA (UC) AND CALIFORNIA STATE UNIVERSITY (CSU) REQUIREMENTS This plan is a 38–41 unit, general education pattern which meets all lower-division general education requirements at most California State University (CSU) or University of California (UC) campuses. It should be noted that completion of the IGETC is not a requirement for admission to a CSU or UC, nor will its completion guarantee admission to a CSU or UC campus.

The IGETC plan is not the only way to fulfill lower-division general education requirements. Depending on a student’s major or field of interest, the student may find it advantageous to fulfill the CSU’s general education requirements or those of the UC campus or college to which the student plans to transfer. Some colleges within the UC system will not accept IGETC, depending on the major. Students wishing to use a course to meet General Education Breadth or IGETC requirements must be sure that the course is approved for the academic year in which it was taken. It is strongly recommended that the student consult with a counselor to determine which general education pattern is the most appropriate for him/her.

The course requirements for all areas must be completed before the IGETC can be certified. Each course must be completed with a grade of “C” or better.

An acceptable score on an English Advanced Placement (AP) exam may be used to meet the English composition requirement but may not be used to meet the Critical Thinking English composition requirement.

The student is encouraged to pursue academic studies and other college-sponsored activities that will promote intellectual growth and personal development. In pursuing these ends, the student should be free of unfair and improper action by any member of the academic community. A grievance may be initiated by a student when he/she believes he/she has been subject to an unjust action or denial of rights as stipulated in college regulations and in the state education and administrative codes. Such action may be instituted by the student against another student, faculty, administrator or other staff member. A grievance must be initiated no later than the end of the term during which the incident occurred. Where a student believes an injustice has taken place, the student may seek resolution through the following procedures.
