Articulation Agreements

The UC Transfer Preparation Paths on this site provide summaries of the coursework you should take at the community college to prepare you for your major. To see the actual courses at your community college that will satisfy your requirements, you must refer to articulation agreements.

UC articulation agreements are formal agreements between UC campuses and community colleges. They define how courses taken at a community college can be used to fulfill requirements at the UC campus. Some points about articulation agreements:

• You can't assume a course will be articulated based on the title of the course.
• Each UC campus will have separate articulation with separate community colleges, even when the colleges are in the same district.
• You can't assume that a community college course will be accepted the same way at different UC campuses. UCLA, for example, may not use a course the same way that UCSD does.
• Different majors at the same UC campus may apply community college courses differently

All of the UC articulation agreements are available at ASSIST.

Directions for using ASSIST are available on the ASSIST Web site.
