This pathway, intended as a reference, models graduation after earning 60 credits at CSUMB. It is unlikely that your actual pathway will look exactly like the model due to several factors:

  • The number of credits you transfer into CSUMB with, and how those credits articulate with CSUMB requirements
  • Whether or not you need to take additional courses to meet the CSUMB Language ULR as a Graduation Learning Outcome (This pathway assumes you have met the language requirement prior to your first semester at CSUMB. If not, you will need to add additional courses in consultation with your major advisors.)
  • Whether or not you need to take additional coursework to meet the Technology and Information ULR as a Graduation Learning Outcome (This pathway assumes you have met this requirement prior to your first semester at CSUMB. If not, you will need to add additional courses in consultation with your major advisors.)
  • Actual availability of courses during a given semester
  • Personal choices you make in your Individual Learning Plan – in consultation with your major advisors – including the decision to pursue more than the minimal learning requirements

You must earn nine upper-division General Education credits after you have reached upper-division status. Upper-division GE courses taken when you are a lower-division student do not count toward this requirement.
