UC TCA policy for transferable English Composition requires this wordcount.
Assuming the CSU's local GE pattern mirrors CSUGE, our team currently passes along their course for these two GE patterns (or sets of attributes).
What are local GE and CSUGE?
For CSUGE, this is the minimum grade (letter grade equivalent).
What is "C-" or better?
List three of the "buzzwords" we look for in any potential Area A3 Critical Thinking course.
What are...
1. Logical Fallacies
2. Inductive Reasoning
3. Deductive Reasoning
Two parts: 1. This is the minimum grade for all IGETC courses; this is the minimum units for all IGETC areas (except for standalone Science lab).
1. What is C or better (or Pass/CR if = to C or better), and
2. What is 3 semester or 4 quarter units?
Name any of the common "not transferable" elements (or name any of the common elements that are found in transferable courses).
What is "too practical / applied / commercial / vocational"?
or
What is focuses on theory / principles?
When a given CSU has a Pass or CR grade equal to a "C- or better," we convert their Pass or CR grade to this letter grade on SHATAEQ.
What is "TC-"?
This is the quantifiable difference that IGETC 1A (English Composition) has that CSUGE A2 does not.
What is the word count of 5,000 words for IGETC.
What are two (or more) speeches?
Aside from area 5, list the two IGETC areas where the Standards state we may combine course sequences where the individual courses may be fewer than the typical IGETC minimum units.
What is area 1A and area 2A?
Language Other Than English for UC TCA should meet these two content/level standards.
When a student has completed remedial Intermediate Algebra at a CSU, we change the units to this on SHATAEQ.
The extra quantifiable component that IGETC 1B Critical Thinking & Comp has that CSUGE A3 Critical thinking does not have.
What is IGETC's wordcount (5,000 words)?
or
What is the 2nd semester comp req of 5,000 words.Name any component of the new Area F requirement (any content or effective date).
What is the course must be taught under Ethnic Studies, African Am Studies, Asian Am studies, etc...(or be cross listed)
or
What is must of a majority of the area F SLOs defined?or
This became effective for Fall 2021.

Standalone Trigonometry courses
or
(Truly) variable topics courses.
or
Religious studies courses taught from only one perspective / meant to indoctrinate or convert

List any website or resource that might assist with *ideas* for possible course matches.
What is:
1. C-ID?
2. CSU Public TES website?
3. public ASSIST?
4. SHATATR prior evaluation matches?
This is the prerequisite difference between CSUGE B4 (Quantitative Reasoning) and IGETC 2A (Math & Quantitative Reasoning).
What is the prerequisite of Intermediate Algebra is only standard for IGETC?
or
What is the prerequisite changed for CSUGE (Fall 2018) to be any appropriate prerequisite?
This is the "magic date" when Area B4 Quantitative Reasoning prerequisite 'relaxed' - per our Articulation Officers.
What is Fall 2018?
One course from these areas may be deferred until CSU admission for students earning an ADT with IGETC for STEM.
What are areas 3 and 4 (CSU students)?
or
What are areas 3, 4, and 6 (UC students)?
Variable topics courses are transferable if...
EITHER:
1. student gets approval using a syllabus by the enrolling campus only after transfer
OR
2. We can verify that the course was more of a rotating topics course (i.e., separate title and course number prefered)
The basis for "Pass Along" is found in this Appendix section of this manual. (two parts)
What is Appendix Q of the CIAC Handbook.
This is the difference between CSUGE's A1 (Oral Comm) and IGETC's 1C (Oral Comm).
What is this is a trick question!
