What are the transfer requirements from College of the Canyons to CSUN?

I'm planning to transfer from College of the Canyons to CSUN and need to know their specific requirements. Are there GPA thresholds or particular courses I should focus on to increase my chances of getting accepted?

To transfer from College of the Canyons to CSUN, or any Cal State University, the minimum requirements are:

1. You must be in good standing at all previous colleges and/or universities attended.

2. You must have a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or better in all transferable units attempted.

3. You should have completed 60 semester units that are eligible for transfer to the CSU, including a minimum of 30 semester units in general education courses with a grade of C- or better.

Specifically, for CSUN, you should make sure to complete the following courses with a grade of C- or better:

1. Written Communication

2. Oral Communication

3. Critical Thinking

4. Quantitative Reasoning (Math)

Of course, these are the minimum requirements. For individual majors, you may need to have specific pre-requisite courses completed in order to be considered competitive for admission. For example, if you're interested in a Business Administration major at CSUN, you'd want to take microeconomics and macroeconomics, calculus for business, and financial accounting. It's savvy to look into your intended major's departmental webpage to get an idea of the current pre-requisite courses.

You should also consider meeting with a college advisor from both College of the Canyons and CSUN to make sure you're on the right path and maximizing your chances of acceptance. They can provide updated and personalized guidance specifically for your situation.
