California community colleges offer associate degrees for transfer to the California State University system. These degrees are designed to provide clear pathways to CSU majors and baccalaureate degrees. Students awarded associate degrees for transfer and meeting the CSU minimum transfer admission requirements are guaranteed admission with junior standing within the CSU system. Students are also given priority admission consideration to their local CSU campus, or to a program that is deemed similar to the community college major. This priority does not guarantee admission to a specific major or campus.

Students awarded associate degrees for transfer are able to complete their remaining requirements for the 120-unit baccalaureate degree within 60 semester or 90 quarter units.
