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
The University of California does not publish major-level transfer data for UC San Diego. Campus-wide figures are not a substitute, so we do not estimate them.
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.

Not scheduled at De Anza College this term: BIOL 6C, BIOL 6B, BIOL 6CH, BIOL 6AH, BIOL 10H, CHEM 1AH, CHEM 1CH, CHEM 1BH, PHYS 2B, PHYS 2C, CIS 36A, CIS 36B, STAT C1000H, MATH 17. A course can still be part of the requirement and offered in a later quarter.
Enrollment availability changes frequently. Confirm status in the official FHDA registration system before enrolling.
Where this path usually starts
Ranked by how central each course is to the agreement — whether it is the only option for a requirement, how many requirements it covers, and whether it is running now. This is Cherrypicker’s ordering of published requirements, not advice about your situation, and it does not know your transcript.
Things to watch
Derived from this agreement and the current class data — not generic advice.
8 requirements have no De Anza course
ASSIST lists no De Anza College course for 8 requirements in this major. Those are usually completed after transfer, but confirm with a counselor.
7 courses have only one open section
CHEM 1A, PHYS 4C, CIS 22A, CIS 41A, CIS 41B currently have a single section with seats reported at De Anza.
20 mapped courses with no open seats
CHEM 30A, CHEM 10, BIOL 6A, BIOL 40C, BIOL 40B are full or waitlisted at De Anza right now. Check the other FHDA college below, and confirm before you plan around them.
Major preparation
Left: what UC San Diego requires. Right: the De Anza College course or courses ASSIST accepts for it. Alternatives are labelled or; courses joined by + are all required together.

Agreement year 2025-26, captured from ASSIST. Verify against the official agreement and confirm with a counselor before making transfer decisions.
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.
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 UC San Diego Psychology B.S. with a Specialization in Cognitive Psychology?
ASSIST's 2025-26 agreement maps 243 UC San Diego 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 University of California, San Diego 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 Fall 2026 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 UC San Diego requirements show no De Anza course?
ASSIST lists no articulated De Anza College course for 8 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.
