The California Articulation Number (CAN) identifies some of the transferable, lower division, introductory, (preparatory) courses commonly taught within each academic discipline on California college campuses. The system assures that CAN courses on one participating campus will be accepted "in lieu of’’ the comparable CAN course for the major on another participating campus.

Example: CAN ECON 2 on one campus will be accepted for CAN ECON 2 on another participating campus. The CANs are listed by the course descriptions in the Skyline College Catalog.

CAN will be phased out in Fall 2008. See a counselor for further information.
