  • Course Identification Numbering System (C-ID)

Course Identification Numbering System (C-ID)

The Course Identification Numbering System (C-ID) is a statewide numbering system independent from the course numbers assigned by local California Community Colleges. For example, the SJCC course ACCTG 020 is listed as comparable to C-ID course ACCT 110. This means students at SJCC can be assured that ACCTG 020 will be accepted in lieu of a course bearing the C-ID ACCTG 110 designation at another California Community College. In other words, the C-ID designation can be used to identify comparable courses at different California Community Colleges. However, students should always go to www.assist.org for what will be accepted at a particular four-year college or university for transfer credit.

The C-ID numbering system is useful for students attending more than one California Community College. Because course requirements may change and because courses may be modified and qualified for or deleted from the C-ID database, students should always check with a counselor to determine how C-ID designated courses fit into their educational plans for transfer.

The following is a list of San José City College courses with C-ID approval as of March 2020. For the most updated list, please go to www.c-id.net/courses.
