Transfer Programs to Universities Four-year universities require students to complete certain requirements for the bachelor's degree; among these are general education and major requirements. Los Angeles Valley College offers transferable courses which are equivalent to the lower division (i.e., freshman & sophomore) requirements at many colleges and universities. Among these colleges and universities are the following: UCLA, USC, CSU Northridge, CSU Los Angeles, CSU Long Beach, CSU Dominguez Hills, Cal Poly Pomona, Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, UC Santa Barbara, and UC Irvine. With counseling and careful planning a student can, in most instances, transfer as a junior with his or her lower division major requirements and appropriate general education requirements completed. Students who were ineligible to enter the California State University or the University of California from high school can become eligible for transfer upon completion of 56 transferable units (provided that appropriate graduate and course requirements have been met).
