Laney College's English AA-T serves students with a wide variety of goals, including transfer to UC, CSU, or other four-year institutions. Students will learn high-level skills in essay composition and literary analysis. Students who successfully complete the AA-T in English earn specific guarantees for transfer to the CSU system: admission to a CSU with junior status, and priority admission to their local CSU campus and to a program or major in English or a similar major. Students transferring to a CSU campus will be required to complete no more than 60 units after transfer to earn a bachelor's degree. Students are required to complete 60 semester units that are eligible for transfer to a California State University, including both of the following: (1) The Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC) or the California State University General Education Breadth Requirements and (2) 21 semester units with a grade of C or better in the major and an overall minimum grade point average (GPA) of at least 2.0 in all CSU transferable coursework.
