Transfer Credit Report
What is the Transfer Credit Report?
The Transfer Credit Report is an electronic evaluation that outlines what courses transferred from another college and what the equivalent is at CI. When there is no articulation agreement between that college and CI, students are given generic Lower Division, Upper Division, or General Education credit.

What to look for and How to Request Changes
1. Are the transferable courses you took showing up in the report?
Did you submit transcripts from your institution with final grades? If you did, send an email to records.registration@csuci.edu describing your concern and an evaluator will review your file and provide you with more information.
Transcripts can be sent to*:
CSU Channel Islands
Records and Registration
One University Drive
Camarillo, CA 93012
*Some local California Community Colleges participate in electronic transcript exchange via eTranscript California and can send your transcript directly to CI in an electronic format. This option is typically automatic if you opt to have it mailed to us directly instead of obtaining a paper copy and bringing it to us at the Enrollment Center. This option saves eliminates postal service time, reduces processing time at CI, and helps the environment by reducing paper waste.
2. Is the equivalent CI course what you expected the transfer course to be equated to?
Submit a Course Substitution request for either General Education or your major by completing one of the following and turning it in to the Enrollment Center:
• Major/Minor Course Substitution Request (PDF, 256KB)
• General Education Course Substitution Request (PDF, 257KB)
OR
Send an email to records.registration@csuci.edu requesting a change to the course equivalency.
NOTE: This alternative process is only typical if the request is G.E. area specific,
it is from a California Community College, and the alternative can be found at www.assist.org. An example: You took HIST V01A at Ventura College, which can give you credit for
GE Area C or GE Area D according to www.assist.org. CI opted to give you Area C credit, but you would prefer GE Area D credit. In some
cases you may be required to submit a substitution request.
Advantages of Reviewing & Personalizing Your Transfer Credit Report
1. Some courses have pre-requisites and you will not be able to register for specific classes if the equivalent transfer
course is not on your transfer credit report.
An example: MATH V20 at Ventura is equal to MATH 105 Pre-Calculus at CI. MATH 105
is a pre-requisite to MATH 140 Calculus I. If your report does not state MATH V20=MATH
105, and instead gives you generic credit, you will receive an error when you attempt
to register for MATH 140.
2. You will be more informed and make better use of your Academic Advising appointment.
