There are a number of differences between a CSU and a UC. The following shows some of those differences:

CSUs and UCs accept on-line applications. Go to CSUMentor to apply for CSUs or UC Applications to apply to UCs. Transfer Center staff can help you learn how to navigate through this process. Workshops that review both applications and the UC Personal statement are offerred. Check the Transfer Center Calendar.

Answer - The Channel Service Unit (CSU) receives and transmits signals from and to the WAN (wide area network) line and provides a barrier for electrical interference from either side of the unit. The CSU can also echo loop-back signals from the phone company for testing purposes. Often a CSU and DSU are combined into a single piece of equipment called a CSU/DSU.

No. You will need your student identification number and have declared a major through Admissions and Records. To make an appointment with a university representative, please visit or contact the Transfer Center.

Yes and no. The UC system allows you to apply to all its campuses with just one application. There is a fee for each school to which you have them send your application. The CSU system requires a separate paper application for each campus. Using the online application is an efficient way to save time.

California has two public university systems. The UC system emphasizes a theory-based approach to learning, and offers doctorate programs in most disciplines, along with graduate opportunities in medicine, dentistry, business, law, pharmacy, and veterinary medicine. The CSU offers traditional and career specific majors, with graduate opportunities at the Master's level.

Many students do not know that they have satisfied most LBCC AA requirements in Liberal Arts at LBCC when they complete admissions requirements for a CSU or UC school. If you completed LBCC GE Plan B or Plan C with 60 transferable units and have completed the reading proficiency requirement at LBCC, you may petition for an AA in Liberal Arts (option II) at Long Beach City College. Students apply for the degree during the semester when the degree requirements will be completed.

IGETC is the G.E. pattern used to satisfy lower-division general education requirements at both UC and CSU campuses. The CSU G.E. sheet is used strictly for CSUs.

The CSU System stands for the California State University System. It includes 23 campuses which accept the top 1/3 of high school graduates. Two local examples are SDSU and CSU San Marcos.

The CSU terminal server number is 212-2222. It supports normal (dumb, vt100) terminal dial-in, as well as SLIP and PPP on its 391 V.90 modems. You will need a lamar/holly account to get in, because the terminal server prompts for user identification. These lines have a 2 hour time limit. If you need to do only a short task, there is also 212-FAST (3278), which has a 10 minute time limit. Of course, there is a catch: you now have to pay to use it.
