Fall 2023 Major-Specific Degree Requirements for Transfer Students
Admission to all majors at аÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê×ÊÁÏ is competitive as аÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê×ÊÁÏ continues to have more qualified applicants than available new student spaces. All аÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê×ÊÁÏ undergraduate majors continue to be "impacted." As a result, all majors have specific admission and declaration requirements. Please carefully review the information for your major, as requirements for some majors may differ from those previously listed for prior semesters.
All transfer students must declare a major when submitting their application. Review Transfer Application and Admissions for eligibility and application details.
To review the detailed major-specific degree requirements, select the name of the appropriate College below. If a major is highly impacted it will be noted in the description of each major and additional supplemental criteria and requirements are indicated in the major specific details. These criteria will be used for Fall 2023 and Spring 2024 admission consideration. Admission criteria are subject to change for future admission cycles.

The Associate Degree for Transfer (ADT) curriculum is used in lieu of the major specific degree requirements. We strongly encourage students to complete both the recommended and required courses as аÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê×ÊÁÏ remains highly competitive in our admissions process. Under current CSU guidelines, the cumulative GPA will be increased by 0.1 and this ‘calculated GPA’ will be applied in the ranking of applicants. Please see the Associate Degree for Transfer (ADT) for a complete list of requirements and additional information on how the ADT will be used in the competitive ranking process.
- Except for "Highly Impacted" majors, CSU eligible applicants who are considered "local" based on their high school of graduation or their military veteran status will be offered admission if they meet the major specific minimum cumulative GPA and required lower division preparation.
- Other CSU eligible applicants who have met the major specific minimum cumulative GPA and the minimum required lower division preparation will be admitted on a space available basis based on their cumulative GPA and the additional preparation courses completed if specified in the criteria.
- If space is available after all students meeting the minimum major GPA and preparation have been accommodated, then CSU eligible students without the minimum major preparation may be considered.
- Students admitted to the major who have not completed the additional recommended transfer requirements or the additional аÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê×ÊÁÏ requirements must complete them in their first year at аÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê×ÊÁÏ.
BE AWARE: For Fall term admission, coursework and unit minimums must be completed no later than the prior Spring term. For Spring term admission, coursework and unit minimums must be completed no later than the prior Summer term.
