- Must Do: Request Your Official Transcripts
When you transfer to a different school, they need official records of the courses you’ve taken at CMC. You need to ask CMC to send your next school two different kinds of official records:
- Transcript: The official list of your classes, grades, and degree or certificates earned
- General Ed Certification: The stamp of approval that the courses you took at CMC are equal to the general education (usually the first two years) at a CSU or UC school. You can get an IGETC certification or a CSU-GE certification. IGETC certification works for any UC or CSU school. The CSU-GE certification works for CSUs and some HBCUs.
