Students with Questions About GE Credit for Transferred Courses

Courses transferred to CSUEB from an outside institution may or may not be approved for GE (including Overlay, Second Composition, or Code) credit, which is noted in your Transfer Credit Report and Degree Audit Report in your MyCSUEB portal.  If you think a course you transferred in may be eligible to clear a GE area, please reach out to your academic advisor.  Only academic advisors may submit a GE Petition on behalf of a student.  

Information About GE Credit for AP Exams

Depending on your score on a specific AP exam, you may receive GE and/or major credit.  Go to the Advanced Placement (AP) Exam Credit section of the catalog for specific details.  A quick reference chart is available here
