Transferring to a Four-Year Institution

If you are planning to transfer to a four-year institution from San Joaquin Delta College, you should consult with a Delta College counselor, a representative of the campus to which you plan to transfer, and refer to the college catalog for that campus in order to obtain the most current information. Additional information is available on the world wide web. You are encouraged to visit the web sites published in this article. There are four things to research when planning the courses you will need to transfer:

1. Admission requirements for the university you plan to attend.
2. General education requirements. Consult with your counselor to select a general education pattern that best meets your transfer goals.
3. Major preparation courses which meet prerequisites for upper division coursework. Consult with your counselor to determine which lower division courses and major preparation courses you should complete at San Joaquin Delta College before you transfer.
4. Other requirements that can be completed at the community college, e.g., foreign language, diversity requirement, computer literacy.
