CSU GE-Breadth - Certificate of Achievement, Level 3

The Certificate of Achievement in CSU GE-Breadth is a program that provides students with the option of fulfilling all lower division general education requirements before transferring to the California State University (CSU) system.

Students who intend to transfer must meet all current lower division CSU GE-Breadth requirements including minimum GPA. Students may also request certification of their general education upon completion of this Certificate of Achievement. The Certificate of Achievement will appear on student’s transcripts, but the certification is a separate request. It is the student’s responsibility to submit it to their transfer institution. Students are strongly advised to meet with a counselor to discuss transfer requirements and lower division major preparation that is needed for their intended transfer university.

Although the certificate recognizes the completion of lower division CSU GE-Breadth requirements, it does not guarantee admission to a specific campus within the CSU system nor does it guarantee admission to a specific major.  Some majors and colleges may require a different lower division preparation and/or a higher GPA than is necessary for this certificate.  A grade of “C” or better is required in all courses. A “P” (Pass) grade is an acceptable grade for courses in the major or area of emphasis if the course is taken on a “pass/no pass” basis.
