Does Fresno City College have a pathway to UC schools?

I'm aiming for a UC school transfer, but I want to start at Fresno City College. Does FCC have programs or partnerships that make transferring to a UC campus easier?

Yes, Fresno City College (FCC) does help facilitate the transfer process to the University of California (UC) schools through its Transfer Services programs. In partnership with UCs, FCC certainly provides the necessary pathways for their students to transition smoothly toward a UC school after their Associate's Degree.

An essential program to consider is the Transfer Admission Guarantee (TAG) program which assures students a spot in one of the six of the nine UC campuses—UC Davis, UC Irvine, UC Merced, UC Riverside, UC Santa Barbara, and UC Santa Cruz. It's also important to keep track of TAG deadlines and requirements, as those vary per UC school.

While a TAG is a surefire way to secure a seat at a UC school, FCC also offers advising aimed at transferring to a UC campus and arranges presentations from representatives from UC schools to help students understand the transfer requirements and prepare for successful applications.

Remember to work closely with your counselors, follow the Individualized Student Educational Plan (ISEP) tailored to your goals, take advantage of the workshops FCC offers, and make the most of the support services FCC offers to assist students throughout their journey. These would indeed enhance your chances of successful transfer upon completion of your Associate's Degree.

Keep in mind the university's transfer admission requirements and recommended courses to be certain that you're on the right path for a smooth transition when the time comes. Good luck with your educational journey!
