How do I transfer comp classes from Citrus College to Cal State Fullerton?

I've taken some comp classes at Citrus College and want to make sure they will transfer to Cal State Fullerton. What steps should I follow, and are there specific classes that easily transfer?

Transferring your computer science classes from Citrus College to CSU Fullerton is a fairly straightforward process, but it requires some planning and communication with both institutions. Here's a general roadmap:

1. Course Evaluation: Ensure that the courses you've taken at Citrus College are equivalent to the courses at CSU Fullerton. CSU Fullerton's department of computer science will match your course syllabi against their own to determine if credit can be granted. It's helpful to keep all of your old syllabi for this process.

2. Visit Assist.org: ASSIST is the official repository of articulation for California’s public colleges and universities and provides the most accurate course equivalency information.

3. Speak to Academic Advisors: Reach out to academic advisors at both institutions. They can provide you with the latest information on the transfer process and course equivalencies. Start with contacting your advisor at Citrus College and then reach out to a CSU Fullerton academic advisor.

4. Official Transcripts: You'll need to provide CSU Fullerton with your official transcripts from Citrus College. You can typically request these through your current college's website or registrar's office, usually for a small fee.

Remember, not all classes may transfer or satisfy specific degree requirements, it depends on CSU Fullerton's evaluation. And timelines can vary, so plan ahead and start this process early. Be proactive about following up on your request to ensure it moves through the process.
