12. Footnotes on the UC Transfer Course Agreement (TCA) on ASSIST are instrumental in our evaluation process To determine awarding of transfer credit Calculation of the GPA UC uses To ensure students are not short of units 12 TCA Footnotes Ensuring Transfer Success 2014

13. Two similar courses, each is transferable, but if a student takes both, UC will award credit for only one course. (e.g. College Algebra and Precalculus) Two series of courses, UC will award credit for only one series. (e.g. Business Calculus & Calculus for science and engineering) Total transferable units will be reduced. 13 Limitations Ensuring Transfer Success 2014

14. How much credit will UC award for the 3 courses completed below? 9 units? TCA Footnotes: 1 Maximum credit allowed for Poli Sci 101 is one unit if taken after Poli Sci105 or Soc Sci 132; 2 No credit for Poli Sci 105 if taken after Poli Sci 101 or Soc Sci 132 3 Maximum credit allowed for Soc Sci 132 if taken after Poli Sci 101 or Poli Sci 105 is two units 14 Partial Credit SOC SCI132Intro to Social Science4 units POL SCI105Amer Political Ideals2 units POL SCI101Intro to Government3 units Ensuring Transfer Success 2014

25. CCC Advisers Should Ask: What was the students academic standing at UC? What is the students goal: return to the same UC or transfer to a different UC campus? Did the student satisfy the Entry Level Writing Requirement while at UC? Does the student plan to complete IGETC? 25 Former UC Student at a CCC Ensuring Transfer Success 2014

26. Ask the student: Are you now or have you ever been on academic probation at UC? If yes, is the desire to: Return to the former UC campus? Transfer to a different UC campus? 26 Former UC Student On Academic Probation at UC College/UniversityUC Transferable Sem UnitsGrade PointsGPA UC Davis25.347.861.88 Orange Coast Col36.5122.03.34 Cumulative Totals61.8169.862.74 Ensuring Transfer Success 2014
