Does anyone have experience with the hospitality program transfer sheet at Fullerton College? I'm trying to plan my transfer and could use guidance on which courses to prioritize.
Response: In order to transfer from a community college like Fullerton College to a 4-year institution, you'll need to focus on completing the General Education (GE) requirements, your major prerequisites, and maintaining a strong GPA. The general transfer requirements will vary depending on whether you're interested in transferring to a University of California (UC), a California State University (CSU), or a private university, so tailoring your plan to your transfer institution is beneficial.
The Hospitality Management program at Fullerton College has a list of required courses to attain the Associate Degree for Transfer (ADT) including key courses like Introduction to Hospitality Industry, Food and Beverage Operations, and Hospitality Law. It's important to prioritize these courses, as they will be relevant to your major at a 4-year institution.
Additionally, consider meeting with a counselor at Fullerton or reaching out to an academic advisor. They will help you formulate a specific transfer plan, prioritizing major prerequisites and General Education courses best suited to your transfer goals. They can assist you in understanding which courses are beneficial in the track and can also guide you with important details like deadlines, scholarships, and academic requirements.
Remember that transferring is not just about completing courses but also about demonstrating strong academic performance in those courses. So, try to pick a balanced course load that you believe you can excel at while also meeting all the criteria for your intended transfer. Good luck with your planning and transfer journey!
