The Course Identification Numbering System (C-ID) is a statewide numbering system that assigns a common number to comparable courses within the California community college system. This number is independent from the course numbers assigned by MiraCosta College or any other community college in the state. When a C-ID number is listed in the catalog or schedule at the end of a MiraCosta course description, students can be assured the course will be accepted in lieu of a course bearing the same C-ID designation at another community college. Many courses with C-ID descriptors may also meet requirements for the Associate Degree for Transfer to the California State University system.

The following table lists the MiraCosta College courses that currently have a C-ID number. As courses are approved for a C-ID, they will be added to this table and noted in the catalog addendum.
