Degrees Designed For Your Transfer Goals
Students who receive an Associate Degree for Transfer are eligible for admission with junior standing into the California State University (CSU) system. A student who has earned one of these degrees will not be guaranteed admission for a specific major or campus but will be given priority admission consideration to the local CSU campus and to a program or major that is determined by the California State University to be similar to the transfer AA degree.
Current and prospective transfer students are strongly encouraged to meet with a counselor to review their options for transfer and to develop an educational plan that best meets their goals and needs.
The following are required for all Associate Degrees for Transfer:
Minimum of 60 CSU-transferable semester units. A minimum of 12 units must be in residence at Coastline Community College.
Minimum grade point average (GPA) of at least 2.0 in all CSU-transferable coursework. While a minimum GPA of 2.0 is required for admission, some majors may require a higher GPA. Please consult with a counselor for more information.
Completion of a minimum of 18-semester units in an Associate Degree for Transfer major as detailed in the catalog. All courses in the major must be completed with a grade of “C” or better or a “P” if the course is taken on “pass-no pass” basis (title 5 § 55063).
Certified Completion of the California State University General Education-Breadth pattern (CSU GE Breadth Coastline’s Option 2 General Education pattern), OR the Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC - Coastline Option 3 General Education pattern).
