University of California (Breadth)
General Education RequirementsThe University of California
has campuses in Berkeley, Davis, Irvine, Los Angeles, Riverside, San Diego, San Francisco,
Santa Barbara, and Santa Cruz.
The campuses have uniform entrance requirements; however,
each campus is distinctive, and not all majors are offered at every campus. Each
school and college at a specific UC campus has a general education requirement designed to
give students a broad background in major academic disciplines. The general
education requirement, sometimes called the breadth requirement, specifies the courses
students must take or credit hours students must accumulate in each area.
Solano College counselors, the Career Center, and the
Transfer Center have lists of courses which are acceptable for credit at all UC campuses,
as well as those which meet the breadth requirements for specific UC colleges and
schools. Students should study the list of undergraduate colleges, schools, and
majors available at each campus to determine which campuses will best satisfy their
educational needs. Contact a counselor for specific
information.
