About Me

I chose SJSU because of its value and location

When can I/should I transfer?
• Once you have completed all your required English courses (IGETC 1 a,b,c)
• When you have completed all or most of your math (Math 1,2,3, Diff Eq, Linear Algebra)
• It is recommended that you complete as many of the math/science/engineering curriculum as you can at the community college

When can I/should I transfer? (cont.)
• When you feel you are ready – Maximum of 70 units will count towards SJSU
degree requirements– BUT courses taken to meet degree requirements
(such as GE courses) will still be considered completed

Stay ahead of due dates and be persistent
• A missed due date WILL result in your application being dropped
• Application for admission Fall 2014 is due Nov. 30
• SJSU admissions can be slow to respond

Once accepted
• Send your transcript– Chabot sends paper transcripts which take longer
to process at SJSU– Note: do not send multiple transcripts from
Chabot, it delays processing• Sign up for a transfer orientation• Sign up for the Writing Skills Test (WST), pre-
requisite for 100w

Registration and Orientation tips
• Admissions is backlogged on transcript processing– This prevented transfer students from priority
registration this year• Bring your degree plan to advising orientation• Talk with your major advisor about specific
upper division GE requirements
