Notes

Courses numbered C1000 to C2000 were previously numbered 100-299 and have been renumbered to comply with a new law known as Assembly Bill 1111, or Common Course Numbering (CCN). The goal of CCN is to “streamline transfer from two-to-four-year postsecondary educational institutions and reduce excess credit accumulation” by having all California Community Colleges identify the courses they have in common with identical course numbers and titles. Beginning fall 2025, the courses can be identified with a “C” at the start of their four-digit number.
