Most UC Transfers come from relatively few CCCs:
• 25% of CCC transfers come from 7 CCCs
• 50% of CCC transfers come from 19 CCCs
• 75% of CCC transfers come from 41 CCCs
• All 112 CCCs sent at least 1 student to UC
Transfer Diversity
COUNSELOR CONFERENCE 2015
CCC Transfers Come From Across CA
Example: UC San Diego draws heavily from Southern California, but also from CCC’s across the state
Students need to be able to prepare broadly
COUNSELOR CONFERENCE 2015
• Is clear advice to potential transfers• Is inclusive of all nine UC campus
admission requirements• Is a set of recommendations that will
prepare them for timely graduation• Is NOT necessarily a duplicate of the ADTs• Is NOT a guarantee of admission

Message to Students
Although following a pathway doesn't guarantee admission to UC, it gives you a clear roadmap to prepare for your major and be well positioned to graduate on time from any UC campus.
The pathways guide students who want to make themselves competitive across the UC system; some campuses may want fewer courses for admission, but none will expect more.

Cell Biology, Molecular Biology

Next Steps
Articulation• UC needs to ensure articulation is
consistent across UC for the identified course expectations
General Education• UC needs to develop guidance on
how Transfer Pathways fit with General Education options
Additional Faculty Engagement• ICAS, CCC-CSU review of TMCs,
C-ID
