Note: UC Berkeley’s College of Letters & Science requires full certification of IGETC (See a counselor for details). All courses MUST be completed with a grade of “C” or better. Students should request IGETC certification when requesting their transcripts to be sent to the UC or CSU campus of their choice during the final term before transfer. CAUTION: IGETC may not be the best option for transfer, particularly for majors such as Engineering, Computer Science, Biology, and Business. See a counselor for more information. UC COLLEGES and MAJORS that do not accept or recommend the use of IGETC: Berkeley: Haas School of Business; Colleges of Chemistry, Engineering, and Environmental Design. Davis: College of Engineering; Division of Biological Sciences, and majors in the College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences and the College of Letters and Sciences that require substantial math and science preparation, such as: Chemistry, Environmental Toxicology, Food Science, Nutrition Science, Physics, Viticulture and Enology, etc. Irvine: Students entering majors that require specific or substantial preparation, such as science majors, may use IGETC but need to give priority to completion of lower division preparation courses. Los Angeles: School of Engineering and Applied Science or the School of Nursing. Merced: IGETC is not recommended for majors in the School of Engineering and Natural Sciences. Riverside: The IGETC is not appropriate for students entering the College of Natural and Agricultural Sciences or the Bourns College of Engineering. San Diego: Students choosing majors that require specific and substantial lower division preparation, as in the Jacobs School of Engineering, may use the IGETC. However, lower division degree requirements should also be emphasized in transfer program planning. IGETC is accepted at Earl Warren, John Muir, Sixth, and Thurgood Marshall Colleges. Students who follow IGETC are welcomed at E. Roosevelt and Revelle Colleges. However, they must meet specific graduation requirements of those colleges. Santa Barbara: IGETC is not appropriate preparation for transfer into the College of Engineering and the Computer Science major in College of Letters & Science. Santa Cruz: Although the IGETC is acceptable for all majors, students planning to pursue majors that require substantial lower-division preparation, such as those offered in the School of Engineering, the sciences, or environmental studies, should give priority to the completion of major prerequisite courses.

70 • C-ID DESIGNATED COURSES College of Alameda 2020-2021 Catalog Course Identification Numbering System (C-ID) The Course Identification Numbering System (C-ID) is a statewide numbering system that is different from the course numbers assigned by individual California Community Colleges. A C-ID Designator next to a course means that the course is comparable in content and scope to a similar course offered by participating California colleges and universities. Thus, if a catalog lists a C-ID Designator for a course, students can be assured that the course will be accepted at another California Community College that offers a course with the same C-ID Designator. The C-ID Numbering System is particularly useful for students attending more than one California Community College since C-ID Designators are often applied to courses students need to prepare for transfer.
