Important Information & Footnotes
- This general education certification pattern can be subject to change year by year, but students are assured that courses taken to meet this pattern will be honored if they are approved for the academic year that the course is completed. Courses on this list are approved effective fall 2024 and are valid through summer 2025.
- Inclusion of Area 7 and reduction of units in Area 4 apply to students beginning at a California community college in fall 2023. Students who maintain catalog rights to any year prior to fall 2023 may choose the IGETC pattern without Area 7 and with nine units required in Area 4.
- The approved courses on this pattern are those available at the time of catalog publication. For the complete course approval list, please see the catalog addendum, the class schedule, or the Articulation and Transfer Center webpages.
- All courses on IGETC must be completed with a "C" or better. A "P" (Pass) is acceptable, but UC permits no more than 14 semester transferable units to be completed on a pass/no pass basis.
- UC credit may be limited for some courses. For example, no credit is given for an introductory course if it is taken after a more advanced college course. Credit may also be limited for courses with overlapping content. In addition, duplicate credit will not be awarded for the honors and non-honors versions of a course. UC credit limitations are noted on the catalog course descriptions.
- IGETC is not a UC admission requirement but is advantageous to most transfer students. Students are strongly encouraged to work with a MiraCosta College counselor to develop an educational plan that includes general education and major preparation coursework specific to the intended UC campus. Certification of IGETC, including Area 1C, Oral Communication, is an admission requirement for the California State University system when students are completing an Associate Degree for Transfer and using IGETC to fulfill the general education component of this degree.
