Frequently asked questions
Will my credits transfer to UC?
If you earned your credits at a regionally accredited institution your credits will transfer to UC. You can use our Transfer Equivalency Database (TED) to look up your courses and find the UC equivalent. If one or more of your courses is not in our database, it means that it has not yet been reviewed for equivalency. You will need to send official transcripts and complete your application for a full evaluation to be completed. UC accepts OT36. TAG. CTAG, ITAG, AP and IB courses and we encourage you to work with an advisor to best understand the application of your credits.
How will my classes apply to my intended degree?
Our transfer advisors can help you understand how your credits will apply to your degree and thus approximately how long it will take to complete your degree. To request an appointment, please fill out this form and an advisor will reach out.
