Course Selection Assistance
As you think about the next course you will take, consider selecting a general education course. For Coastline’s local degree, students take 18 units of general education requirements in addition to the major/area of emphasis classes and free electives. So regardless of the major you eventually select, the general education courses will apply towards your degree. Then as you progress in your academic career, the general courses will fit into your academic plan.
The chart below reflects the local general education requirements. Most courses are offered every session; however it is best to check the Class Schedule from the website each session. It is your responsibility to confirm how specific coursework completed at Coastline will transfer to your institution.
