Mapping Cal-GETC to IGETC
This chart is for current students who are planning on transferring to CSU or UC, have catalog rights before fall 2025, and are following the IGETC pattern.
As you pick courses to satisfy your catalog year's IGETC requirements, you can reference the following table to choose courses that will meet both IGETC and Cal-GETC patterns. For example, if you need to complete a course from IGETC 1A, you can pick a course from Cal-GETC 1A to meet the IGETC 1A requirement.
