IGETC – Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum

Shasta College 2023-2024 | IGETC (Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum)

Students who are planning to transfer to the University of California system or who are undecided about whether to transfer to a UC or CSU may satisfy general education requirements with IGETC. The IGETC will permit a student to transfer from a community college to a campus in either the UC or CSU system without the need to take additional lower division general education courses to satisfy campus general education requirements.

Transfer students to UC have the option of following IGETC or completing the general education requirement at the campus they plan to attend. Students pursuing majors that require extensive lower division preparation may not find the IGETC option to be advantageous. Check with a counselor before choosing your general education pattern.

IGETC courses must be completed with a "C" grade or better (P is acceptable).
