Transfer courses are applied toward degree requirements and are based on factors such as articulation agreements, unit limitation and General Education certification. For specific transfer credit information, please see the links below.
Articulation Agreements
Articulation agreements identify individual courses from transfer institutions that are comparable to, or "acceptable in lieu of" corresponding courses at Cal State Fullerton (CSUF). Successful completion of an articulated course assures that students will receive appropriate course credits after transferring to CSUF.
