2. UC and CCC signed agreement in April, 2018 to boost transfer
News from UC
“UC and CCC sign agreement to boost transfers, increase academic preparation”
a joint agreement aimed at increasing the number of academically prepared community college students who transfer to UC and earn a bachelor’s degree.
“Enhancing Student Transfer,” that immediately initiates a comprehensive effort to guarantee admission for all qualifying California Community College transfer students to the University of California’s system of nine undergraduate campuses.

3. What do the presidents agree on?
UC President Napolitano said. “We hope to see the tangible, positive effects of these efforts by fall of next year [2019].”
CCC Chancellor said, “Community college students who transfer to the UC campuses do as well, or sometimes better academically, as students who start their studies at a UC.” 

4. What does this mean?
Under the MOU, students who complete one of the UC pathways and achieve the requisite GPA will be guaranteed a place within the UC system. These guarantees will be in place for students beginning community college in fall

5. Good News:
Where the California Community College Associate Degree for Transfer(ADT) meets or exceeds the major requirements in a UC transfer pathway for the same major, it will be accepted in lieu of a pathway for purposes of the guarantee.
COC has 24 ADT’s: Communication Studies, Computer Science, Math, Physics, Biological Sciences, Business Administration, English, Geography, Geology, Psychology, Political Science, Journalism, etc.

6. More Good News: TAG (Transfer Agreement Guarantee):
The limitation to one campus, one program TAG has been removed;
Instead of 6 UC campuses, all 9 UC campuses now participate in TAG.

7. What about students starting this Fall, 2018?
Enhanced “transfer culture” will increase students’ opportunity to be accepted by UC.
TAG is not the only way to transfer to UC:
Students who are accepted by one UC campus are often accepted by many more!
So Start NOW! The decision you made today determines the course of your future.
