If a community college course is UC transferable (e.g., Eng 100), can a student use this course to satisfy a UC eligibility requirement?
Yes. Usually a 3-unit community college course equals 1 year of high school credits. There is also an exception in English and math for transferable courses to clear high school subject requirements. In the English area, to clear the first 3 years of high school credits, the college course does not have to transfer, but to clear 12th grade English, the course does have to transfer to UC. Also, in math, college courses in Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra II,and Trigonometry do not transfer to the University, but these course can be taken and used to clear high school subject credits. Courses that do not transfer to the University can clear subject deficiencies, but will not receive the additional honors credits.
