A lettergrade cannot be changed to a credit/no-creditgrade, and a credit/no-credit grade cannot bechanged to a letter grade unless the course isrepeated. A course in which a grade of NC hasbeen earned may be repeated once for a CR orletter grade. Some courses are offered only on aCR/NC grading basis and letter grades may notbe earned in these courses. These courses areidentified in the Course Descriptions section ofthis Catalog.

Students may request CR/NC grades in anyregular graded class offered by the College butthey are limited to a total of 15 semester unitsunder the CR/NC option while attending SolanoCollege. In order to exercise this option, apetition must be filed with the Office ofAdmissions and Records at the time ofregistration, or by the FIFTH week of thesemester for a full semester course. Petitions forsummer session and short-term courses must befiled within the first thirty per cent of the course.

Students should be aware that other colleges anduniversities may be reluctant to accept CR/NCgrades. Students should not take the CR/NCgrade option in their major fields of study.

GRADE REPORTS

Grade reports will be mailed to studentsapproximately four weeks after the semesterends.

INCOMPLETE GRADES

An incomplete grade may be assigned only when astudent has failed to complete the finalexamination, a class project, or a term paperbecause of illness or severe personal problems.Incomplete work must be completed by the end ofone calendar year.

When such conditions exist, the instructor andstudent must complete an “Incomplete GradeContract” which outlines the work to be completedwithin one calendar year to result in an agreed-upon grade and states a preliminary grade whichrepresents the grade earned by the student in workcompleted. When the work has been completed asoutlined on the contract, the instructor willforward a “Change of Grade” card to the DivisionDean. If the instructor of the course is no longer oncampus, the manager will make arrangements tochange the incomplete grade. Students may not re-enroll in a course where they have an IncompleteGrade. Students who do not complete the contractwill be assigned a grade at the end of one calendaryear.

CHANGE OF GRADES

Students requesting a change of grade must initiatethe request within one year after completing thecourse for which the grade change is beingrequested. After this period, if there areextenuating circumstances, a change of grade maybe requested; however, the period for requesting agrade change may not exceed four years after thecompletion of the course.

Students should submit a request in writingdirectly to the faculty member within one yearafter completing the course for which the gradechange is being requested. If the faculty member isnot available, the request should be submittedthrough the appropriate Division Dean; however,only the faculty member that assigned the originalgrade may authorize a change of grade.

Important Note: Except in the cases of mistake,fraud, bad faith, or incompetency, a grade assignedby an instructor is not a grievable issue asdescribed by the California Education Code(Section 76224): “. . .when grades are given for anycourse of instruction taught in a community collegedistrict, the grade given to each student shall be thegrade determined by the instructor of the courseand the determination of the student’s grade by theinstructor, and in the absence of mistake, fraud,bad faith, or incompetency, shall be final.”

Aerospace Studies (Air Force ROTC)Air Force Reserve Officer Training Corps(AFROTC) is available to Solano CommunityCollege students through a program offered atCalifornia State University, Sacramento (CSUS).The CSUS Department of Aerospace Studies offerstwo-, three-, or four-year programs leading to acommission in the United States Air Force. Allcoursework (12 or 16 semester units) is completedon the CSUS campus. Drills and courses arenormally offered on Tuesdays, Wednesdays andThursdays. Field Training is conducted during partof the summer at an active Air Force base, normallybetween the student's sophomore and junior years.

Upon completion of all the program requirementsfor a Bachelor's degree, cadets are commissionedsecond lieutenants in the Air Force and serve aminimum of four years on active duty. Graduateswho are qualified and are selected may enter pilotor navigator training after graduation, or serve in aspecialty consistent with their academic major,individual goals, and existing Air Force needs.Graduates may request a delay of entry on activeduty to continue their education or may apply forAir Force sponsored graduate study to beginimmediately upon entry on active duty. Due tofirm scheduling requirements for the AFROTCprogram, students are encouraged to work closelywith their academic advisors in planning thisacademic program.

AFROTC offers 3-year and 2-year scholarships toqualified students. Applications are accepted inany academic discipline; however, particularemphasis is usually given to applicants in the fieldsof engineering computer science, mathematics, andphysics.

Application to the AFROTC program shouldnormally be no later than during the first semesterof a student's sophomore year. Juniors, seniors andgraduate students may also apply under certainconditions. Contact the Unit Admissions Officer inthe Aerospace Studies Department at CSUS,telephone (916) 278-7315, for information on theprogram or the entry process.

CSU, Sacramento on the Spot AdmissionOn-the-Spot Admission is offered at Solano Collegeby CSU Sacramento. Sacramento State AdmissionsCounselors visit our campus and will admitstudents who are eligible On-the-Spot.

Transfer to Four-Year Colleges & UniversitiesWhile it is ultimately students' responsibility toadhere to transfer admissions requirements andapplication deadlines, Solano College counselorscan help students keep up to date with thecomplex array of transfer requirements. To ensuretransfer admission, particularly into competitivemajors, students should see a counselor early intheir educational experience in order to develop aneducation plan that includes transfer prerequisitesthat are common to a number of public and privatefour-year colleges and universities. In addition,students are urged to study the catalogs of thoseschools and, if possible, visit those campuses.Catalogs and detailed transfer information areavailable in the COUNSELING, CAREER, andTRANSFER CENTERS. Information regardinggeneral education requirements for the CaliforniaState University system and the University ofCalifornia system are summarized in this catalog.

Obtaining regular counselor assistance withtransfer education planning is essential forsuccessful transition to four-year universities andcolleges.

Transfer Admission Agreements (TAA)A Transfer Admission Agreement (TAA) is aformal, written agreement that outlines the coursesyou must complete before transferring, states thegrade point average you must earn and any specialrequirements.

After the TAA is written, you sign the agreement,along with a counselor and the representative fromthe four year college. The current colleges anduniversities that we have agreements with are:

•CSU Sacramento (Transfer AdmissionCommitment)A written agreement to grant

admission upon completion ofspecific courses at SCC.

•UC DavisTAA's written up to one year

before transferring.Spring in DavisStudents with TAA's for Fall may take one class atDavis in Spring at no cost.

Cooperative Admissions Program (CAP)CAP is an admissions program for high schoolseniors interested in guaranteed admission to UCBerkeley. While Cal may not admit one as afreshman, if minimally eligible, they will offerguaranteed admission after completing 60transferable units and a 3.0 GPA at Solano College.Interested UC eligible students should apply forfreshman admission to Cal in November of theirsenior year. If denied, the CAP alternative will beoffered. This program is offered to Letters & Scienceapplicants and a selected number of College ofEngineering applicants (3.5 transferable GPA isrequired in Engineering.)

UC Berkeley ConcurrentEnrollment ProgramThis program provides an opportunity for transferbound Solano College students to enroll for free inUCB lower division courses on a space availablebasis. Information workshops are provided inNovember and May.

Intersegmental General Education TransferCurriculum (IGETC)The IGETC is a series of courses that communitycollege students can use to satisfy lower divisiongeneral education requirements at any CSU or UCcampus. The IGETC will provide an option to theCalifornia State University General EducationRequirements.

IGETC will permit a student to transfer from acommunity college to a campus in either theCalifornia State University or the University ofCalifornia system without the need, after transfer, totake additional lower-division, general educationcourses to satisfy campus G.E. requirements. (Thereare a few exceptions to this statement. See aCounselor for more information.)

Completion of the IGETC is not a requirement fortransfer to a CSU or UC, nor is it the only way tofulfill the lower-division general educationrequirements of the CSU or UC prior to transfer.Students may find it advantageous to take coursesfulfilling CSU's general education requirements orthose of a particular UC campus.

California Articulation Number (CAN)The California Articulation Number (CAN) Systemidentifies some of the transferable, lower division,introductory (preparatory) courses commonlytaught on California college campuses.The system assures students that CAN courses onone participating campus will be accepted “in lieuof” the comparable CAN courses on anotherparticipating campus. For example: CAN ECON 2on one campus will be accepted for CAN ECON 2on every other participating campus. Each campusretains its own numbering system, but adds theCAN designation parenthetically in it publications.It is expected the most campuses throughout thestate will qualify courses to use the CaliforniaArticulation Numbers. Check with counselingoffices, academic advising offices, or articulationofficers for current listings of CAN courses andcampuses participating in the CAN System. A CANCATALOG listing campuses and courses ispublished biannually.

University of CaliforniaPlanning to Transfer

Transfer students need to plan their courseworkcarefully. Courses they take should, first, help themmeet the minimum admission requirements fortransfer. In addition, students should selectcommunity college courses that partially orcompletely fulfill a variety of other Universityrequirements. All courses students take to meetUniversity requirements must be transferable to UC.

Students increase their chances for admission andsuccess after transferring if they develop and follow apre-transfer plan of college coursework. Manyprospective transfer students know which UC campusand program they wish to attend and have a generalknowledge of University requirements, however, this is notenough to ensure a successful transfer. It is essential thatstudents research the specific requirements of their intendedmajor and campus and the community college courses thatare approved to meet these requirements.

Knowing what the requirements are and planning theircommunity college program around them will maximizestudents' chances for admission to their first-choicecampus and program. Meeting requirements in advancewill give students more freedom when selecting coursesonce they enroll in the University. They may also be ableto complete their undergraduate education within fouryears, without having to attend additional terms to meetrequirements or take prerequisites.

Information to assist in the transfer process is available ina variety of UC publications, including Answers forTransfers and the campus General Catalog. SolanoCollege's UC Transferable Course Agreement and the

Courses Acceptable at University of CaliforniaSolano College courses number 1 through 49 transfer tothe University of California. A limited number of units areallowed for certain transfer courses in specific areas.Courses which have an asterisk (*) following the coursename and number in the Course Descriptions section ofthis Catalog have been submitted to the UC system forapproval as transferable courses. The transferability ofthese courses is pending UC approval. Not all SpecialTopics courses are transferable. Please contact a counselorfor specific information.

University of California (Breadth) General EducationRequirementsThe general education or breadth requirements aredesigned to give UC undergraduates a broad backgroundin all major academic disciplines—natural sciences,physical sciences, social sciences, humanities, and finearts. The general education/breadth requirements specifythe courses students must take or credit hours they mustaccumulate in each area.

Each school and college at every UC campus has its ownset of requirements. They are described in the campuscatalogs and articulation agreements. With carefulplanning, the student can meet many of the requirementswhile attending community college. At some campusesand in some majors, transfer students must fulfill all or aportion of the general education/breadth requirementsbefore transferring.

Transfer applicants may satisfy lower division generaleducation requirements at any UC campus by completingthe Intersegmental General Education TransferCurriculum (IGETC).

Solano College counselors, the Career Center, and theTransfer Center have lists of courses which are acceptablefor credit at all UC campuses, as well as those which meetthe breadth requirements for specific UC colleges andschools. Students should study the list of undergraduatecolleges, schools, and majors available at each campus todetermine which campuses will best satisfy theireducational needs. Contact a counselor for specificinformation.

University of California, Berkeley(College of Letters and Science)

Transfer students with 60 or more semester units areexpected to have satisfied the reading and compositionbreadth requirement, the quantitative reasoning breadthrequirement, and the foreign language requirement of theCollege by the end of the spring term prior to transfer.

Transfer students who apply from California communitycolleges also have the option of fulfilling lower divisionbreadth requirements by completing the IntersegmentalGeneral Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC). Thisprogram specifies a series of subject areas and types ofcourses that, if completed before transfer, will satisfy thelower division breadth and general educationrequirements at any general campus of UC.

NOTE: In recent years, all major programs have turned awayqualified applicants because of space limitations. Transferapplicants should be aware that admission to most majors in theCollege is competitive and should endeavor to complete as muchof the lower division preparation as possible for thier majorbefore transferring.

Contact a counselor for details and information onspecific courses to satisfy the College of Letters andScience and major requirements.

University of California, DavisThere are three parts to preparing to transfer to UCDavis:

1. Minimum Transfer Admissions Eligibility:courses and grades that prepare a student to beminimally eligible to transfer, regardless of themajor.

2. Major Preparation: courses that prepare astudent to complete a major after transferring.

3. General Education (GE): courses that satisfythe GE requirement for graduation from UCDavis.

Students should place highest priority on achievingminimum transfer eligibility and on completingcourses for their majors. Major preparation givesstudents the best opportunity to begin upper-levelcourses as soon as they transfer. Additionally, somemajors require that students complete specificcourses before they may transfer. Theses majors are:all majors in the College of Engineering, all majors inthe Division of Biological Sciences, Biotechnology,Computer Science, Fermentation Science,International Relations, Psychology, and Viticultureand Enology.

After students have planned their courses for majorpreparation, they can think about General Education.GE is not required for admission; it is required forgraduation from UC Davis. There are two ways tocomplete GE. Students pursuing majors with fewcourses for major preparation will want to considercompleting the Intersegmental General EducationTransfer Curriculum (IGETC). Students pursuingmajors that have many preparatory courses shouldwork on UC Davis GE rather than IGETC.

Students should work with a Solano CollegeCounselor and a UC Davis Adviser to know how toprepare for their majors. This consultation also willhelp students decide which version of GE to choose.
