The Passport and UCGS are 16 and 30-32 credit hour transfer programs in which all courses are transferable and shall satisfy lower-division general education requirements at any public institution of higher education. The Passport shall be a component of the UCGS.
Students transfer through many different pathways; the Passport and UCGS are two mechanisms in which transfer opportunities are maximized for students. The goal with both the Passport and UCGS is to maximize credit acceptance and application toward general education requirements for students transferring prior to earning an associate degree. The Passport and UCGS offer a variety of courses to optimize the student’s educational experience and increase the opportunity for students to earn the Passport or UCGS while also preparing for their program of study. The Passport and UCGS do not guarantee students admission into an institution.
A. Course Completion
Students earn the Passport or UCGS by completing the required credit hours as prescribed in section B. When a general education program exceeds 16 or 30-32 credits, completion of the Passport or UCGS does not guarantee satisfaction of all lower-division general education requirements or individual program requirements; instead, the 16 or 30-32 credit hours of institutional general education requirements are satisfied and will count toward graduation requirements and not extra elective credits. Prior to transfer, students should be advised to take the Passport or UCGS course that best suits their intended program of study at the four-year institution. No distinction will be made by senior institutions regarding college courses applicable to the Passport and UCGS that are completed through dual enrollment arrangements with high schools.
B. Required Areas
Students complete the Passport and UCGS by satisfying the credit requirements within each general education block. Descriptions of blocks are to aid in implementation at the two-year institutions and do not designate which general education requirement is met at the senior institution.
