Transfer path

Potential Transfer Majors:

  • Psychology B.A.

Potential Career/Options After Completing a Bachelor's Degree:

The American Psychological Association website includes a long list of potential careers after completing a Bachelor’s degree.

Advising Notes:

  • Students can substitute ESLW 340 for ENGWR 300/480.
  • Students are assumed to be ready for PSYC 330 by the second semester. PSYC 330 requires prerequisite knowledge of intermediate algebra.

Other Notes to Students Preparing to Transfer:

  • Students who meet the eligibility criteria for ARC Psi Beta (Psychology Honors Club) are encouraged to join in their second semester.
  • See ASSIST.ORG for the transfer requirements of the institution to which you plan to transfer.
  • The UC system requires proficiency in a language other than English equivalent to two years of high school study. See a counselor about fulfilling this requirement.

Honors Courses (H):

Students with a cumulative GPA of 3.2 or better who complete 15 or more units of Honors coursework earn an Honors Transfer Certificate and can take advantage of honors-to-honors transfer agreements with highly selective colleges and universities, both public and private.
