1. To earn an “associate degree for transfer” a student must complete 60 semester units . . . that are eligible for transfer . . . that consist of:
IGETC or CSU GE Breadth
a major or area of emphasis of at least 18 units, as defined by the CCC
2. No additional local graduation requirements may be required
3. Minimum GPA of 2.0 is required
1. “the CSU shall guarantee admission with junior status”
2. “Admission to the CSU. . . does not guarantee admission for specific majors or campuses”
3. “the CSU shall grant a student priority admission to his or her local CSU campus and to a program or major that is similar to his or her CC major or area of emphasis, as determined by the CSU campus to which the student is admitted”
“The CSU may require a student . . . to take additional
courses at the CSU so long as the student is not required to take
any more than 60 additional semester units or 90 quarter
units at the CSU. . .”
“The CSU shall not require students transferring . . . to repeat courses that are similar to those taken at the CC that counted toward the associate degree for transfer.”
112 colleges develop
112 different degrees in each
major...
a concerted, statewide response
a transfer model curriculum developed by intersegmental discipline faculty
Course identification numbering system
“Supra” numbering system
Intersegmental Faculty Discipline Rev Groups (“FDRG”) develop descriptors for courses that typically transfer
Draft descriptors in >15 disciplines
Finalized descriptors in Agriculture, Communication Studies, Sociology
C-ID discipline groups
Develop transfer model curriculum (“TMC”)
All drafts are vetted online
Once model curriculum is finalized, colleges may “adopt”
Chancellor’s Office will expedite approval
Coordination of intersegmental discipline faculty
Clear pathways for students statewide
Students earn an associate degree, complete major prep, and are given admission priority
Appropriate courses for an associate degree
Preparation for transfer
“Double-counting” has benefits

• Soon: Biology, Chemistry, Early Childhood Education, Kinesiology/PE, Physics, Theatre
• Spring 2011: Business, Accounting, Economics & Political
Science--- and More TBD

Wait for the list of disciplines that are developing a TMC
Ask discipline faculty to consider
If you “adopt” TMC, you’ll get fast-track approval in Chancellor’s Office
Using this method, we expect each college will have sufficient degrees in place by Fall
More majors will be added next year
Go to www.c-id.net Sign-up for discipline listservs
Provide input to draft TMC when prompted
Volunteer to participate in statewide C-ID or1440 groups
Senates & AOs will get updates
11 intersegmental discipline groups met Oct. 7 – 8, North & South
◦ Most have draft transfer model curriculum
Vetting status report
As of Nov. 10, __X__ faculty have responded to the “first 5” TMCs
Drafted:Agriculture, Sociology, Communication Studies, Art HistoryBiology, Chemistry, Criminal Justice/AJ, Geology,Early Childhood, Kinesiology, Math, Physics, Psychology, Sociology, Theatre
Will convene after January:Accounting, Economics, Political Science

4.03 S10 Transfer Degree Design (Adopted) Resolved, That the Academic Senate for California Community
Colleges, despite its prior opposition to the use of the word “transfer” in degree titles and degrees in legislation, support legislation to allow but not mandate the establishment of transfer associate degrees that guarantee transfer and protect students from repeating coursework;
Resolved . . . work with the academic senates of the California State University and the University of California to identify common major preparation pathways to simplify student course planning and to inform community college development of degrees designed for transfer; and
4.04 R S10 Title 5 Changes Defining a Transfer Associate Degree
Resolved, . . . recommend a policy to local senates to align
the courses and units required for associate degree transfer majors so as not to exceed the lower-division major requirements at the universities and to refrain from adding any additional local graduation requirements.
SB 1440 requires 18 units in major for associate degree for transfer
Webinars
Frequent updates to senates, articulation officers, curriculum chairs, etc.

OMG---by Fall??
Local curriculum approval timelines
Catalog deadlines
Why such fast review timelines?
Can’t we just use existing AoEs?
◦ Focused versus broad AoEs
Advising & counseling---Help!
