ASSOCIATE DEGREE FOR TRANSFER SUMMARY: SB COMPLIANCE September, The Associate Degree for Transfer ( ADT) is the Degree with a Guarantee. California Community College (CCC) students who earn an ADT will: Leave the Community College System with an Associate Degree Have a clear transfer pathway to the California State University (CSU) Start at CSU with Junior status The ADT streamlines the transfer process by eliminating the repetition of similar courses at the upper division level. With the ADT set at no more than units and the CSU upper division requirements also set at units, students will earn a unit Bachelor s Degree. BACKGROUND In, SB (Padilla) established the Student Transfer Achievement Reform Act which states that commencing with the academic year, students who earn an ADT will have been eligible for transfer to a CSU baccalaureate program. The intersegmental SB Implementation and Oversight Committee guided the program through development and continue to meet today. To establish which degree programs an ADT would be available to students, a Transfer Model Curriculum (TMC) was developed for each discipline. These TMCs serve as a blueprint to guide local development of ADTs. The TMC defines the collection of courses that students will take on their pathway to a Bachelor s Degree at a CSU. Each TMC is a result of collaboration between the Academicc Senate from the California Community Colleges (ASCCC), CSU and CCC administrators, faculty, students, and Chancellor s Office staff. These TMCs are also built on the common Course Identification Numbering System (C ID).
