Moorpark College Catalog 2008/09 48 Moorpark College General Education Philosophy Statement An Associate Degree signifies more than an accumulation of units; it signifies the successful completion of a pattern of learning experiences designed to develop certain capabilities and insights that lead to the fulfillment of individual human potential. Therefore, in addition to the Basic Requirements for graduation relating to units, residency, and competency in reading, written expression, and mathematics, students must also satisfy General Education requirements as required by Title 5 of the California Education Code and by Ventura County Community College District Governing Board Policy. The philosophy underlying “general education” is that no discipline is an isolated endeavor; instead, each relies upon and contributes to a common body of knowledge, ideas, intellectual processes, cultural traditions, and modes of perception. one’s understanding of a specific subject area is greatly enhanced and enriched by knowledge in and experience with other disciplines. Thus, the General Education requirements are designed to introduce students to the variety of means through which people comprehend the modern world and fulfill their potential and, in so doing, serve family, community, and society. The General Education requirements reflect the conviction that those who receive a degree must possess in common certain basic principles, concepts, and methodologies both unique to and shared by the various disciplines. College-educated persons must be able to use their knowledge to evaluate and appreciate the physical environment, the culture, and the society in which they live. In addition, they must have a good self-understanding and the capacity to adapt to an ever-changing and global environment through an ongoing intellectual curiosity and commitment to life-long learning. Upon successful completion of all of the General Education requirements, students will be able to: • Understand the modes of inquiry and critique used in the natural, social, and behavioral sciences and the humanities • Understand and appreciate the role of culture and the arts in society and in one’s personal life • Think logically and communicate effectively • Understand and adopt the concepts of personal health and fitness to enhance the quality of life • Recognize the multitude of diversities in the physical and human environments and how these diversities impact individuals and society • Understand the connections among the various disciplines • Use a variety of means to find information, examine it critically, and apply it appropriately • Work ethically and effectively with others • Apply the skills necessary for successful living in an ever-changing and global environment • Become productive workers and life-long learners to meet the objectives of general education A. Natural Sciences – Courses in the natural sciences are those which examine the physical universe, its life forms, and its natural phenomena. To satisfy the General Education requirement in natural sciences, a course shall be designed to help the student develop an appreciation and understanding of the scientific methods, and encourage an understanding of the relationships between science and other human activities. This category would include introductory or integrative courses in astronomy, biology, chemistry, general physical science, geology, meteorology, oceanography, physical geography, physical anthropology, physics, or other scientific disciplines. B. Social and Behavioral Sciences – Courses in the social and behavioral sciences are those which focus on people as members of society. To satisfy the general education requirement in social and behavioral sciences, a course shall be designed to develop an awareness of the method of inquiry used by the social and behavioral sciences. It shall be designed to stimulate critical thinking about the ways people act and have acted in response to their societies and should promote appreciation of how societies and social subgroups operate. This category would include introductory or integrative survey courses in cultural anthropology, cultural geography, economics, history, political science, psychology, sociology, or related disciplines. C. Humanities - Courses in the humanities are those which study the cultural activities and artistic expressions of human beings. To satisfy the general education requirement in the humanities, a course shall be designed to help the student develop an awareness of the ways in which people throughout the ages and in different cultures have responded to themselves and the world around them in artistic and cultural creation and help the student develop aesthetic understanding and an ability to make value judgments. Such courses could include introductory or integrative courses in the arts, foreign languages, literature, philosophy, and religion. 49 Moorpark College Catalog 2008/09 D. Language and Rationality - Courses in language and rationality are those which develop for the student the principles and applications of language toward logical thought, clear and precise expression and critical evaluation of communication in whatever symbol system the student uses. 1.

NOTE: + Effective beginning Spring 2007 ^ Effective beginning Fall 2003 55 Moorpark College Catalog 2008/09 OTHER GRADuAtiOn inFORMAtiOn Graduation Application Procedures Students may apply for graduation by scheduling a counseling appointment to submit an application for graduation. The student may elect to be either a fall graduate, a spring graduate, or a summer graduate, depending upon the completion of all necessary graduation requirements. However, formal graduation ceremonies are conducted only at the conclusion of the spring semesters. The deadline dates for submission of graduation applications are printed in the Moorpark College Schedule of Classes. Major Requirements under Which a Student Graduates A student remaining in continuous attendance and pursuing the same major at Moorpark College may elect to meet the major in effect either at the time of his or her entering the major, or at the time of his or her graduation from Moorpark College. Variance in Major Requirements occasionally a student may have difficulty in completing exact major requirements as specified in the Moorpark College catalog due to circumstances beyond control of the student. Under exceptional circumstances, a student may file a Petition for Substitution or Waiver to seek approval from the appropriate college officials to substitute courses in designated major or in general education. The petition forms are available in the Counseling Center. Catalog Rights/Continuous Enrollment A student remaining in continuous enrollment in regular sessions at one or more of the colleges of the Ventura County Community College District (VCCCD) or at any other regionally accredited college or university, may meet the VCCCD graduation requirements in effect at the time of his or her entering or at any time thereafter. This applies only to graduation requirements and not to policies, procedures, or other regulations. Catalog rights/continuous enrollment are defined as attendance in at least one term each calendar year. Any academic record symbol entered on a transcript (A-F, CR, NC, P, NP, I, IP, RD, W) shall constitute enroll ment or attendance. A student who has not maintained continuous enrollment is considered to be under new requirements when returning unless the student is granted a petition/waiver for extenuating circumstances. This petition must be initiated by the student through a college counselor and approved by the appropriate dean or designee. Students must be aware that other governing agencies impose more restrictive limitations concern the definitions of continuous enrollment or continuous attendance. Guidelines for Additional Degree Any college in the Ventura County Community College District will award an additional associate degree under the following conditions: 1. A student who has earned an associate degree at any regionally accredited institution may earn an additional associate degree. 2. A student who holds a higher degree from any regionally accredited institution may earn an associate degree in a specific major (this excludes the General Studies Associate in Arts degree). 3. General education requirements earned for one degree may be applied toward another degree. 4. Candidate for an additional degree must complete 12 or more units of credit, in residence, at Moorpark College concurrent with or after the completion of requirements for the first associate degree. In addition, a candidate must be in attendance at Moor- park College in the semester during which graduation requirements for the additional degree are completed. 5. A student must complete all the required courses listed in the catalog for the specific majors. In the event that unmet requirements for a specific major do not total 12 units, a student must complete the remaining units from electives listed under the major or courses as approved by the appropriate division. 6. In the case of degree offering two or more options, a student may earn an additional degree within the same field by completing the requirements for that option (the additional degree) and all other major or courses as approved by the appropriate division. Appeals to the above policy may be submitted to the Dean of Student Services. Waivers may be granted under extenuating circumstances or when there has not been sufficient opportunity to enroll in required courses. Double Counting While a course might satisfy more than one general education requirement, it may not be counted more than once for these purposes. A course may be used to satisfy both a general education requirement and a major or area of emphasis requirement.

Certification of General EducationAfter completing the IGETC or CSU GE patterns, you will need to see a counselor to request that your transfer pattern coursework be certified by the Records office. Students eligible for certification canalsoapplyforaCertificateofAchievement*.GeneralEducation certification means that your transfer pattern coursework at the college is officially recognized by the transfer institution as fulfill- ment of their lower division general education requirements for the bachelor’s degree. If you do not have your college coursework certified, you can be held accountable for the selected transferinstitution’s general education requirements once you begin your study at that institution. Partial certification in individual areas is also possible. Moorpark College Catalog 2008/09 58 COLLEGE/uniVERSitY PREPARAtiOn PAtHWAY General transfer information transfer of Credits Moorpark College is accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges and is generally accredited throughout the country by reciprocal agreements with state departments of public instruction and other accrediting agencies. Students should keep in mind that recognition by a regional accrediting agency only supports the standing of the college and does not assure acceptance of all transfer students from that college. Students transfer on the basis of their individual records and according to the specific requirements of the institution to which they transfer. The need for careful planning of courses and the maintenance of high scholastic standards becomes imperative for all students who intend to transfer to other colleges and universities. The counseling office maintains a variety of transfer agreements with all public and selected private four-year colleges and universities in the state. This information is also available on the Web at www.assist.org Responsibility for Meeting transfer Requirements Academic counseling is available to students on an appointment basis. Counselors are a valuable resource in exploring options or defining the requirements in a particular field of study. They have the expertise to assist you with course selection, program planning, and questions concerning requirements for admission, majors, general education and transfer to a four-year college or university. However, it is each student’s responsibility to satisfy requirements for admission, preparation in the major and general education. To ensure academic success, schedule an appointment with a counselor on a regular basis. Amount of transfer Credit Granted While Moorpark College is accredited, there can be considerable variation in the total amount of credit granted by four-year colleges and universities for work done at this College. Further, there are some courses offered at Moorpark College that are not accepted for transfer credit at some four- year institutions. Students should become familiar with the maximum limits on transfer credit at the institution of their choice, as well as the transferability of individual courses they have chosen. Quality of Work Required In the evaluation of credits, colleges and universities often emphasize the quality of a student’s work rather than the quantity. A few schools having limited and selective enrollment will consider for admission only those transfer students with relatively high scholastic rank. Further, a department within the college or university may have established specific academic guidelines for prerequisites and other coursework in a given major. Students who plan to transfer should become familiar with the scholastic requirements of the transfer institution, as well as the specific requirements within their major. Preparation for transfer Most students attending Moorpark College can complete necessary transfer requirements for admission to four-year colleges or universities, including courses required in preparation for their selected major and general education requirements. The College has written contracts with four-year colleges and universities regarding transfer requirements which specify lower division requirements which may be completed at Moorpark College. Moorpark College courses have been carefully articulated as comparable to or acceptable in lieu of the required lower division major courses specified in the catalogs of the transfer institutions. These are known as “articulation agreements”. Articulation agreements for the California public four-year institution is available on the ASSIST website (see ASSIST below). Some majors, notably those requiring mathematics and/or natural sciences, demand adequate high school preparation to enable a student to transfer in a timely fashion. In addition to major requirements, Moorpark College students can satisfy general education or breadth requirements, as defined by the four-year college or university, in preparation for transfer. These requirements are listed in the Moorpark College Catalog for selected institutions. With careful planning, students who attend Moorpark College can satisfy all requirements for admission to baccalaureate degree-granting institu tions. Universities uniformly prioritize the importance of these several requirements. In order of importance, a student prepares for transfer by completing the following: 1. ADMISSIONS - Complete all three admissions requirements: a. Units (minimum number of units which transfer to school of choice). b. Scholarship (GPA in transfer courses). c. Subject area (a-g requirements of both CSU and UC). 2. SUPPLEMENTAL ADMISSIONS - Consult your counselor concerning additional requirements which apply to selected universities and colleges and to selected majors. These requirements can affect your eligibility for admission. 3. MAJOR PREPARATION - Complete the lower division courses required for the major selected. This is particularly important for high- unit majors with sequential courses based on prerequisites. 4. GENERAL EDUCATION - Complete general education/breadth requirements. 59 Moorpark College Catalog 2008/09 ASSiST Articulation System Stimulating Interinstitutional Student Transfer (ASSIST) is a computerized student-transfer information system that can be accessed over the World Wide Web. It displays reports of how course credits earned at one California public college or university can be applied when transferred to another. ASSIST is the official repository of articulation for California’s public colleges and universities and therefore provides the most accurate and up-to-date information available about student transfer in California. ASSIST is available at www.assist.org. CAn The California Articulation Number System (CAN) is a statewide numbering system independent from course numbers assigned by local colleges. A CAN number indicates that participating California colleges and universities have determined that courses offered by other campuses are equivalent in content and scope to courses offered on their own campuses regardless of their unique titles or local identifying numbers. Thus, if a schedule of classes or catalog lists a course bearing a CAN number, students on one campus can be assured that it will be accepted “in lieu of” the comparable CAN course noted in the catalog or schedule of classes of another campus. For example, CAN ECoN 2 on one campus will be accepted as meeting the requirement of the designated CAN ECoN 2 course on other participating community college or university campuses. *NOTE: CAN has been discontinued by the California Community College System Office. Students currently enrolled in CAN courses will be able to finish their work as planned. The program will remain in effect for students currently participating in the process until 2009. Please check with the Counseling Department for additional information. transfer Admission Agreements The Transfer Admission Agreement is a contract of understanding between a community college, a participating four-year university and the student guaranteeing that upon completion of the conditions of the agreement, the student will be admitted to the university for the agreed term of enrollment. Interested students should see a counselor to determine eligibility and begin the Transfer Admission Agreement process. Moorpark College Catalog 2008/09 60 TRAnSFER TO THE CSu California State university The California State University’s (CSU) 23 campuses offer more than 1,800 bachelor’s and master’s degree programs in 240 subject areas. The CSU provides the majority of the skilled professional workers that are critical to the state’s knowledge-based industries such as agriculture, engineering, business, technology, media, and computer science. In addition, the CSU is the state’s leading provider of graduates in services that are critical to the state, providing more than 80 percent of the college degrees in criminal justice, education, social work and public administration. over 450,000 students are enrolled at the CSU each year with more than 66% of CSU Bachelor’s degrees awarded to community college transfers. With proper program planning, students may complete lower division preparation at Moorpark College and transfer to the campus of their choice. • Humbolt • Chico • Maritime Academy • Sacramento • Sonoma • East Bay• San Jose • Monterey Bay• FresnoSan Fransico •• Stanislaus • San Luis Obispo • Bakersfield Channel islands • northridgeDominguez HillsLong BeachLos Angeles • • PomonaFullerton• San Bernardino• San Marcos• San Diego 61 Moorpark College Catalog 2008/09 CSu ADMiSSiOnRequirementsCSu ADMiSSiOnRequirements A Moorpark College student who is planning to transfer to one of the campuses of the California State University (except the Maritime Academy) can qualify for admission by meeting the following requirements: 1. UPPER-DIVISION TRANSFERS: The majority of students transfer as upper division students. Upper division transfers may qualify for admission if they have completed 60 or more transferable semester units (70 units maximum) and have completed the appropriate college courses with a grade of C or better to satisfy subject area requirements. Applicants must have a 2.0 (2.4 for California nonresidents) overall grade point average in all transferable college units completed and be in good standing at the last college or university attended. 2. LOWER DIVISION TRANSFERS: Students who have completed 59 or fewer semester of transferable units by the time they enter a CSU, are considered a lower division applicant. The CSU, with few exceptions, will no longer accept lower division transfer students. For eligibility as lower division transfer student, visit www.csumentor.edu (search lower division transfers) for complete details. 3. SUBJECT AREA REQUIREMENTS: This admission requirement can be satisfied by completing 30 semester units of general education courses with a grade of C or better in each course, to include Communication in the English Language and Critical Thinking (all of Area A) and Mathematics/Quantitative Reasoning (Area B4). Note: These admission requirements are subject to change. Students should consult with a counselor or visit www.csumentor.edu to receive the most current transfer information. General Education Requirements for upper-Division transfers For most students who transfer to the CSU, completing general education classes should be a priority along with premajor coursework. The CSU provides California Community College transfers with two systemwide options for fulfilling CSU lower-division general education requirements. The two options are 1. CSU General Education-Breadth (CSU GE). Refer to this section of the catalog for the list of approved courses. 2. The Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC). Refer to this section of the catalog for the list of approved courses. Most CSU campuses require students to complete a minimum of 30 transferable semester units of the CSU GE or the IGETC. Within either pattern, the highest-priority classes are the three courses in the English language -oral communications, English composition and critical thinking - along with a general education course in mathematics. Completion of general education courses prior to transfer is usually the most efficient path. Upon completion of either the CSU GE-Breadth or IGETC at Moorpark College, you should obtain certification of your general education requirements before transferring to a CSU. If you are pursuing a high-unit major such as engineering, some math-based fields, science, or other technical majors, you will need to work closely with a counselor to plan which classes you should take for upper-division transfer. CSU campuses do allow high-unit majors to take fewer general education courses before transfer. Just remember, ultimately you will need to meet the general education requirements in order to graduate from CSU. Good planning with your counselor is essential if you enroll in a high-unit major.

Campuses known for this are: FRE, FUL, HUM, LB, MB, PoM, SAC, SD, SF, SJ, SLo, SM, and SoN. Certified Courses Moorpark College will also certify courses completed at other regionally accredited institutions in partial satisfaction of GE requirements provided that such courses are baccalaureate level and would be certified by the institution offering them. Students who have completed courses at other colleges and universities should consult the Counseling office regarding “pass along” certification. Scholarship Most campuses require a grade of C or better for each course and an overall C average (2.0 GPA) for all courses used to satisfy GE requirements. Also, some campuses require letter grades for all GE courses and do not permit credit/no credit or pass/no pass grades. Campuses known to impose limitations on courses graded as credit are: DH, EB, FUL, SB, and SoN. Course Restrictions While a course may satisfy more than one general education group and/ or area requirement, it shall not be counted more than once and any excess units in one area shall not apply to another area. u.S. History, Constitution and American ideals Requirements All campuses require students to complete college-level coursework in U.S. History, American Government and California Government, often in addition to GE requirements. Courses approved to satisfy this requirement are specified in appropriate areas. All campuses allow double counting of courses taken to meet this requirement and GE-Breadth. use of Major Courses Most campuses require a grade of C or better for each course required in preparation for a student’s major; most do not allow a “Credit” (CR) or “Pass” (P) for major courses. Some CSU campuses allow applicants who submit full or area certifications to double count courses for general education and major requirements. Foreign Language and Second Semester English Some campuses require foreign language and/or second semester of English for graduation. In some cases, students certified in Areas A and C are exempt from these requirements. Also, some campuses require completion of these courses for certain majors. See the catalog of your campus choice for these requirements, especially if you are interested in these campuses: BAK, CI, EB, LA, MA, MB, SAC, SF, SJ, and SM. Multicultural/Ethnic Studies Requirement CSU campuses require all candidates for the bachelor’s degree to complete at least one course in multicultural/ethnic studies as a condition of graduation. Selected campuses will not permit this requirement to be met prior to transfer; for most of these campuses, the course must be upper division: CI, DH, FRE, LB, MB, SB, SD, SF, SJ, and SM. Other Requirements You are advised to consult your counselor and the catalog of the state university which you plan to attend for requirements unique to that school. Campuses that may impose additional graduation requirements are: BAK, CI, CHI, EB, FUL, HUM, LA, LB, MB, NoR, SAC, SLo, SM and SoN. Sequential Courses Most institutions recommend that students complete sequential courses at the college where the series was started. This is especially recommended for a sequence of two or more courses which require the preceding course(s) as a prerequisite to advancement. transcripts You must make a written request of the Registration and Records office to forward your transcript. You must request transcripts of work completed at any other colleges (outside of this college district) to be sent to the transfer institution. Your Application for Certification is not a request for a transcript. Moorpark College Catalog 2008/09 64 TRAnSFER TO THE uC university of CaliforniaTRAnSFER TO THE uC university of California the university of California System The campuses of the University of California (UC) provide exciting environments that foster world-class educational and research opportunities and generate a wide range of benefits and services that touch the lives of Californians throughout the state. The UC has established campuses throughout the state of California and enrolls more than 220,000 students. All campuses have uniform entrance requirements and certain other features in common. However, each campus is distinctive and not all majors are offered on all campuses. Students should study the list of undergraduate colleges, schools, and majors available on each campus to determine which campuses will best satisfy their educational needs. Students are encouraged to discuss with their counselors the particular advantages each campus has to offer. • uC Davis • uC Berkeley • uC San Francisco • uC Santa Cruz the university of California has 10 campuses: • Berkeley (UCB) • Davis (UCD) • Irvine (UCI) • Los Angeles (UCLA) • Merced (UCM) • Riverside (UCR) • San Diego (UCSD) • San Francisco (UCSF) • Santa Barbara (UCSB) and • Santa Cruz (UCSC). • uC Merced •uC Santa Barbara•uC Los Angeles•uC Riverside•uC irvine •uC San Diego 65 Moorpark College Catalog 2008/09 uC ADMiSSiOnRequirementsuC ADMiSSiOnRequirements More and more students are discovering the transfer path to the UC. In 2004-2005, more than 13,000 students transferred from California community colleges to UC, and close to a third of all UC bachelor’s degrees were awarded to students who started out at community colleges. The University considers you a transfer applicant if you enrolled in a regular session at another college or university, except while in high school or summer session immediately following high school. (You can’t disregard your college record and apply as a freshman.) Junior-Level transfer The vast majority of transfer students come to the University at the junior level from California community colleges. To be eligible for admission to UC as a junior-level transfer student, you must fulfill both of the following criteria: 1. Complete 60 semester units (70 units maximum) of transferable college credit with a GPA of at least 2.4 (2.8 for California nonresidents). No more than 14 semester (21 quarter) units may be taken pass/no pass or credit/no credit. 2. Complete the following course pattern requirements, earning a grade of C or better in eachcourse: Two transferable college courses in English composition; one transferable college course in mathematical concepts and quantitative reasoning; four transferable college courses chosen from at least two of the following subject areas: the arts and humanities, the social and behavioral sciences, and the physical and biological sciences. NOTE: Each course must be worth at least 3 semester units. Lower-Division transfer It is highly recommended that students transfer at the junior level. However, the University of California admits some transfer students before they reach junior standing if they have met specific requirements. If you were eligible for admission to the University when you graduated from high school -meaning you satisfied the Subject, Scholarship and Examination Requirements, or were identified by the University during your senior year as eligible in the local context and completed the Subject and Examination Requirements in the senior year - you are eligible for transfer if you have a C (2.0) average in your transferable college coursework. If you met the Scholarship Requirement in high school but did not satisfy the 15-course Subject Requirement, you must take transferable college courses in the missing subjects, earn a C or better in each required course and have an overall C (2.0) average in all transferable coursework to be eligible to transfer. For more information about the Subject, Scholarship, and Examination requirements, see www.universityofcalifornia. edu/admissions/undergrad_adm/paths_to_adm/ freshman/state/eligibility.html Major Preparation Requirements Major preparation requirements specify the courses you must take during your first two years of college to prepare for advanced study in your major. They may be required as part of the major, they may be prerequisites for other courses that are required as part of the major or they may be required to gain admission to the major. Transfer applicants are evaluated, in part, on the basis of their performance in major preparation coursework, so it is important that you investigate the requirements for your intended major as soon as possible. If your major requires mathematics and science, it is especially important that you complete those prerequisites before you transfer. Lack of preparatory coursework may affect your admission to your major, particularly if there are many applicants and a limited number of spaces. You should begin coursework in your major as soon as you have selected one. If you are applying for fall admission, the campus may require you to complete certain major preparation requirements by the end of the preceding spring term. Visit www.universityofcalifornia.edu for more details. General Education Requirements General education requirements are designed to give University undergraduates a broad background in all major academic disciplines-natural sciences, physical sciences, social sciences, humanities and fine arts. The general education requirement, sometimes called the breadth requirement, lists the specific courses you must take or number of credit hours you must earn in each discipline. Students planning to transfer to one of the University of California (UC) have two options for completing their lower division general education requirements: Option 1: The Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC) Pattern. Refer to this section of the catalog for a complete listing of approved courses. Option 2: The campus-specific General Education breadth requirements. Lists of approved courses which may be used to satisfy breadth requirements are available at www.assist.org. Moorpark College Catalog 2008/09 66 iGETC intersegmental General Education transfer Curriculum The Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC) is a general educationprogram that community college transfer students can use to fulfill lower division general education/breadth requirements for either the California State University (CSU) or the University of California (UC) systems without the need, after transfer, to take additional lower division general education courses. Completion of the IGETC is not a requirement for transfer to a CSU or UC, nor is it the only way to fulfill the lower division general education requirements of the CSU or UC prior to transfer. Some students may be better served by taking courses which fulfill the CSU General Education- Breadth requirements or those of the UC campus or college to which they plan to transfer. Students pursuing majors that require extensive lower division major preparation (“high-unit majors”) may not find the IGETC option to be advantageous. Students should also be aware that selected schools and colleges at all undergraduate campuses of UC have requirements which render the use of IGETC either inappropriate or not permitted (see IGETC Considerations below). The IGETC is most useful for students who want to keep their options open before making a final decision about transferring to a particular CSU or UC campus. iGEtC Considerations Students with a substantial amount of coursework from institutions outside the United States should consult with a community college counselor to determine whether they should complete IGETC or the lower-division breadth/general education requirements at the campus they plan to attend. In addition, some colleges or majors prefer that transfer students follow a more prescribed lower division curriculum, as described here: Berkeley: IGETC is acceptable for all majors in the College of Letters and Science, and it is highly recommended. The Haas School of Business and the Colleges of Engineering, Environmental Design and Chemistry have extensive, prescribed major prerequisites. In general, IGETC is not appropriate preparation for majors in these colleges. Although IGETC satisfies breadth requirements for most majors in the College of Natural Resources, specific lower division major requirements must still be satisfied; check with the college or visit the ASSIST website for more information. Davis: Anyone preparing for a bachelor of science degree is advised not to pursue IGETC, and instead to concentrate on major-specific preparatory work. Irvine: All schools accept IGETC. However, selection by the campus is based on demonstrated academic achievement and preparation for the intended major. Los Angeles: The Henry Samueli School of Engineering and Applied Science does not accept IGETC. Merced: The School of Engineering and the School of Natural Sciences do not recommend IGETC. Riverside: The Marlan and Rosemary Bourns College of Engineering and the College of Natural and Agricultural Sciences do not accept IGETC, although any courses taken to satisfy IGETC may be applied toward the college’s breadth pattern. The College of Humanities, Arts, and Social Sciences accepts IGETC San Diego: IGETC is accepted by John Muir, Earl Warren, Sixth and Thurgood Marshall Colleges only. Students completing IGETC are welcomed at Eleanor Roosevelt and Revelle Colleges; however, they must fulfill the specific general education requirements of those colleges. At UCSD, all majors are available to students in each college, so students who choose IGETC will not be restricted in their choice of major as a result. Santa Barbara: Transfers into the College of Letters and Science and the College of Creative Studies may use IGETC to substitute for general education requirements. Transfers into the College of Engineering may also use IGETC to substitute for general education requirements. In addition to general education, all students in the College of Engineering are required to complete a depth requirement. Students who wish to satisfy the depth requirement prior to transfer must complete a yearlong sequence in the history of world civilization, history of Western civilization, history of the United States, history of Western philosophy or history of Western art. Students may want to choose courses for IGETC that will concurrently satisfy the depth requirement. Students may also complete the depth requirement with upper division coursework after transferring. Note that students planning to transfer into a major in engineering, computer science or the biological or physical sciences must be careful to complete lower division major prerequisites to ensure competitiveness and make normal, timely progress through the major. Santa Cruz: IGETC is not appropriate preparation for any major in the Jack Baskin School of Engineering or the Division of Physical and Biological Sciences. This is because IGETC does not provide students with enough mathematics and science courses to complete their majors in two years after transferring. 67 Moorpark College Catalog 2008/09 2008-2009 intersegmental General Education transfer Curriculum (iGEtC) AREA 1 - ENGLISH COMMUNICATION CSU: 3 courses required, one from each group below.

Moorpark College Catalog 2008/09 68 Additional iGEtC information Certification All UC and CSU campuses will accept full certification (completion of requirements in every area) of the IGETC as meeting all of the lower division GE requirements for the baccalaureate degree. Moorpark College can also provide partial certification (maximum of two courses missing to be completed after transfer). Coursework completed at regionally accredited institutions may be included among the courses to certify under the following conditions: Courses taken at other California Community College (CCC) will be placed in the IGETC area identified by the offering college the term the course was taken. Courses taken at other colleges or universities (other than CCC) may be used on IGETC as long as the courses are determined to meet IGETC course standards. In addition, credit awarded for Advanced Placement exams can be used to meet IGETC requirements. Students should consult a counselor to determine the applicability of coursework and AP exam scores to IGETC subject area requirements. Except for courses from other CCC’s IGETC, coursework from other institutions generally will not be used to fulfill the critical thinking/ English composition requirement (Area 1B). Also, foreign coursework cannot be part of a student’s IGETC certification. u.S. History, Constitution and American ideals Requirements Although not part of IGETC, MC may certify completion of the CSU graduation requirement in U.S. History, Constitution and American Ideals. Courses used to meet this requirement may also be used to satisfy other IGETC Subject area requirements. However, CSU campuses have the discretion whether to allow courses used to satisfy the CSU U.S. History, Constitution and American Ideals (AI) graduation requirement to count in both IGETC and to meet the AI graduation requirement. In the absence of specific knowledge of a CSU campus policy for double-counting, MC will certify IGETC using the courses in Area 4 (4C/4D/4F/4H) and the CSU AI graduation requirement. Consult a counselor for further information about this requirement. Scholarship Courses used for IGETC certification must be completed with a minimum grade of C (C- is not acceptable). A “Credit” (CR) or “Pass” (P) is acceptable, providing it is equivalent to a grade of C or higher at the institution where the course was taken. It is important to keep in mind that some CSU and UC campuses may have limitations on the number of credit/no credit courses that may be used to meet degree requirements. Major Courses -Most campuses require a grade of C or better for each course required in preparation for a student’s major; most do not allow a “Credit” (CR) or “Pass” (P) for major courses. Also, UC will allow IGETC courses to count toward major requirements. CSU will allow double counting only if the student is fully or partially (by area) certified for GE-B. Course Restrictions A single course may count only once; it cannot be used to fulfill GE requirements in two areas simultaneously. transfer Limitations All transfer limitations applying to courses taken at Moorpark College also apply to these general education requirements. Consult your counselor concerning these limitations. 69 Moorpark College Catalog 2008/09 TRAnSFER TO PRivATE and Out-OF-StAtE Students who are planning to enter one of California’s many private four-year schools or an out-of-state public or private school should carefully check the transfer requirements for that particular school and consult a counselor to determine the coursework needed to meet GE and transfer requirements at that institution. Articulation agreements for some local universities can also be found at www.aiccu.edu. Below is the admission and general education requirements for University of Southern California (USC), California Lutheran University (CLU), and University of La Verne (ULV). uniVERSitY OF SOutHERn CALiFORniA (uSC) General transfer information: * Students still in high school: College courses taken before high school graduation cannot be used to fulfill any of the requirements except for GE categories I and III. * USC students: once you have enrolled at USC, you cannot take transfer courses to fulfill GE or the writing requirement.
