How do I pick my classes?

Requirement Sheets and Roadmaps are available for each major/concentration, depending on your catalog year. To identify your catalog year, refer to your Titan Degree Audit (TDA). Your catalog year is located on the top right corner of your TDA. Refer to Understanding Your Catalog Year.

The TDA is the official degree tracking tool. Refer to the Do-It-Yourself Guide to understand how to interpret your TDA.

I received a notice that my Associate Degree for Transfer (SB-1440) status is cancelled, or I did not complete it. What does it mean?

If you are admitted with an Associate Degree for Transfer (AA-T or AS-T) in business, a waiver will be placed on the Lower Division Business Core Courses section of your Titan Degree Audit (TDA), and you will be eligible to declare an approved concentration. If you have questions on approved versus non-approved concentrations for the Associate Degree for Transfer, please e-mail businessadvising@fullerton.edu.

• Refer to the reasons listed below why your status may have changed. Please contact the Office of Admissions at TransferDegree@fullerton.edu if you have further questions regarding your Associate for Transfer Degree.

Cancelled: Please note that if you apply to a major that is different from your Associate for Transfer Degree, choose a non-approved concentration, add a second concentration, a second major, or minor, the waiver of the lower-division business core will be removed, and you will be subject to completing any outstanding lower-division business core courses.
Did Not Complete: The Office of Admissions did not receive verification from your community college that your Associate for Transfer Degree was completed or in progress by the deadline, or you notified CSUF that you are not earning the Associate for Transfer Degree.

The TDA is the official degree tracking tool. Refer to the Do-It-Yourself Guide to understand how to interpret your TDA.

How do I check to see which courses transfer from a community college?

Lower-division (100-200 level) courses may be taken at a community college. Refer to the ASSIST system to find the equivalent and transferrable coursework to CSUF.

Once a final grade is posted on your transcripts, be sure to submit official transcripts to CSUF. Your community college website will have further information on how to submit official transcripts.
