What is certification and why is it important for transferring students?
Certification of CSU GE or IGETC is an important step in the transfer process. The certification of GE is the official notice verifying that a transfer student has completed courses satisfying lower division general education requirements. The certification will be either on the transcript or on a separate certification form. The request for certification of CSU GE or IGETC can be processed through the Evaluations Office located in building I3-201. It is recommended that this request be made after completion of all courses needed for certification (at the end of your last semester at Mesa) and after arrival of transcripts from all transfer institutions. To be certified, all courses on IGETC must be completed with a grade of C or better. The CSU GE pattern can be certified by completing a specific area or by completing the entire 39 units pattern. One can receive either full or partial certification. Please see a counselor for further details.
