Articulation agreements allow course credits earned at one public California college or university to be applied when transferred to another. Skyline College has articulation agreements with all of the University of California (UC) campuses, most of the California State Universities (CSU), and many private colleges and universities. Completing courses as indicated in an articulation agreement does not guarantee admissions to any college. 

Articulation with UC's and CSU's

The most up-to-date information on articulation agreements between Skyline College and California public colleges and universities is available at ASSIST.org. This comprehensive online resource is a student-transfer information system that shows how course credits earned at one public California college or university can be applied when transferred to another. Prospective transfer students can use ASSIST.org to look up information in two ways: via specific colleges or universities, or via major.

 

California Community Colleges Transfer Guarantee to HBCUs

Thanks to an agreement signed March 17, 2015 between the California Community Colleges and several HBCUs, California community college students who complete certain academic requirements are guaranteed transfer to a participating HBCU. 

 The objective of the California Community Colleges Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) Transfer Program is the development of Transfer Guarantee Agreements that will facilitate a smooth transition for students from all of the California Community Colleges to partnered HBCUs.  These agreements will simplify the transfer process and reduce students’ need to take unnecessary courses, thereby shortening the time to degree completion with a cost saving.

 Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) have an excellent academic track record. While only about 17 percent of black undergraduate students attend an HBCU, more than 28 percent of African-Americans who receive a bachelor’s degree obtain them from an HBCU.  These colleges and universities are also leading institutions in awarding degrees to African-American students in the life sciences, physical sciences, mathematics and engineering programs.

The current 39 participating institutions are:
