Course-by-course articulation

Also listed in this agreement

ASSIST lists these De Anza College courses under this major without naming a single Cal Poly San Luis Obispo course they map to — usually because they sit inside a “choose from the following” group. They are part of the agreement, so treat them as in scope and check the exact grouping on ASSIST.

• BIOL 6B
• BIOL 6A + BIOL 6AH
• PHYS 2A + PHYS 2C + PHYS 2B
• CHEM 1A + CHEM 1AH
• CHEM 1B + CHEM 1BH
• CHEM 1C + CHEM 1CH
• CHEM 12A + CHEM 12C + CHEM 12B

Verify this list on ASSIST.org before you register: choose De Anza College as your sending institution, Cal Poly San Luis Obispo as the receiving institution, and Microbiology as the major. ASSIST is the only official source, and agreements change between catalog years.
