The California General Education Transfer Curriculum (Cal-GETC) Starting Fall 2025

Starting Fall 2025, Cal-GETC will replace the California State University (CSUGE) and the Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC). Cal-GETC is a universal lower division general education transfer pattern for both the California State University and the University of California.

Completion of Cal-GETC will permit a student to transfer from a California Community College to a California State University or a University of California campus or program generally without the need, after transfer, to take additional lower-division, general education courses to satisfy campus general education requirements. Although it is strongly recommended to complete Cal-GETC prior to transfer, completion of Cal-GETC may not be appropriate for some engineering, math, science, or other high unit majors. Please see a counselor for details.
