Where this page’s information comes from

This agreement was captured automatically and has not been reviewed by a person. Check it against the official ASSIST agreement before relying on it.

Admission reality

Major-level transfer admission data is published for University of California campuses. CSU Sacramento is outside that dataset, and Cherrypicker does not substitute figures from anywhere else.

Cherrypicker does not estimate anyone’s chance of admission, and never will. Historical outcomes are context, not a prediction.

Planning reality

Counts over the courses ASSIST maps for this pathway. Every figure is a plain count with one definition — there is no score or ranking here.

Things to watch

Derived from this agreement and the current class data — not generic advice.

10 requirements have no De Anza course

ASSIST lists no De Anza College course for 10 requirements in this major. Those are usually completed after transfer, but confirm with a counselor.

1 course has only one open section

PHYS 2B currently has a single section with seats reported at De Anza.

The other FHDA college

Foothill College has its own ASSIST agreement for this major. It is a separate agreement with its own courses and its own source — not an extension of the De Anza College one, and the two are never combined on this page.

De Anza College

9 articulated requirements

ASSISTthis agreement

Whether a course taken at one college satisfies the other college’s requirements is a separate question from articulation. Confirm with a counselor before relying on it.

Common questions

Which De Anza College classes count toward CSU Sacramento Earth Science?

ASSIST's 2025-26 agreement maps 9 CSU Sacramento requirements to De Anza College coursework. The full list, including every alternative, is in the major preparation section above.

Does this page guarantee my courses will transfer?

No. It shows what the published ASSIST agreement between De Anza College and California State University, Sacramento says for 2025-26. Agreements change by catalog year, and your own record can differ. Confirm with a counselor and with the official agreement before you rely on it.

Can I take these courses at Foothill instead?

Sometimes — but it is a separate question with a separate answer. The other college has its own ASSIST agreement for this major, with its own courses and its own source, linked in the section above. Cherrypicker never merges the two.

How current is the class availability on this page?

Section and seat information reflects the district's published Winter 2027 class data, refreshed roughly every 15 minutes, and the page carries the exact time it was last updated. Always confirm in the official registration system before enrolling.

Why do some CSU Sacramento requirements show no De Anza course?

ASSIST lists no articulated De Anza College course for 10 requirements in this major. That usually means the requirement is completed after transfer. It is shown rather than hidden so the picture is complete.

Spot something wrong?

Articulation, prerequisites, course details and class availability all come from sources that change. If something here does not match the official record, tell us and we will fix it — corrections from students and staff are the fastest way this stays accurate.

Make this path yours

Cherrypicker can apply your completed coursework, transfer target and schedule preferences to build a quarter-by-quarter plan around these requirements.
