Cherrypickercourse matching and counts — our analysis, not an official source

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 Santa Cruz. Campus-wide figures are not a substitute, so we do not estimate them.

UC Information Center

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.

ECON 9H, POLI 9H, ECON 1B, PHIL 8, SOC 1 currently have a single section with seats reported at Foothill.

11 mapped courses with no open seats

POLI 3, POLI 3H, BIOL 9, CHEM 1A, CHEM 1C are full or waitlisted at Foothill right now. Check the other FHDA college below, and confirm before you plan around them.

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

De Anza 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 Foothill 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 Foothill College classes count toward UC Santa Cruz Environmental Studies, Global Environmental Justice Concentration?

ASSIST's 2025-26 agreement maps 102 UC Santa Cruz requirements to Foothill 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 Foothill College and University of California, Santa Cruz 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 De Anza 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 Santa Cruz requirements show no Foothill course?

ASSIST lists no articulated Foothill College course for 11 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.
