I've heard about the CSU transfer sheet for Sierra College, but I'm not sure how to use it effectively. Can anyone explain how this works and how it can help me in transferring to a CSU?
The CSU transfer sheet, also known as an articulation agreement, is a useful tool that outlines which courses at Sierra College are equivalent and meets specific requirements at the California State University (CSU) system.
For example, say you're interested in eventually studying Business Administration at a CSU. The transfer sheet will tell you which courses you should take at Sierra College to meet the lower-division requirements for a Business Administration degree. It will list specific Sierra College courses and note how they map onto the CSU requirements.
To use it effectively, begin by identifying the CSU program you're interested in. Then, consult the transfer sheet to see which classes at Sierra College match the required coursework for your program. Plan your class schedule around these courses to ensure you're on the right track.
Remember, one of the benefits of using the transfer sheet is that it helps ensure that the credits you earn at Sierra College will be applied towards your degree program at your desired CSU, reducing the possibility of taking unnecessary courses.
