Sacramento City College has adopted a standardized course numbering system which is described below. The numbers are designed to provide students with general information regarding the focus and intent of courses.
| 1-99 | Courses numbered 1 through 99 are credit courses that are considered developmental or basic skills and are not acceptable for the Associate Degree or transfer credit. |
| 100-299 | Courses numbered 100 through 299 are applicable to the Associate Degree and Certificates. |
| 300-499 | Courses numbered 300 through 499 are articulated for transfer with four-year institutions and are intended to meet major, general education or elective credit requirements. These courses are also applicable to the Associate Degree, Career Certificate, and Certificate of Completion. |
Transfer Credit
Courses accepted for transfer by the University of California (UC) and/or California State University (CSU) are listed with the course description and are identified in the "acceptable for credit" area.
Students who have questions regarding transferability of credit for specific courses to specific institutions should consult with a counselor.
Transferable Courses
Transferable courses can satisfy lower division major preparation, general education, and/or elective requirements. Please meet with a counselor for specific transfer course evaluation.
