How does this affect me? Students who have previously taken the "old" courses at Mission College will be restricted
from enrolling in the corresponding CCN course. If they have completed the CCN course
under a different name or number at another institution, it is their responsibility
to ensure they do not duplicate coursework. This policy aligns with standard transfer
credit practices. Check in with a counselor if you haven’t done so yet.
How can I tell if a course is part of the CCN system? CCN courses are easy to spot! They have a “C” in the catalog number (e.g., ENG 001B
is now ENGL C1003).
Why did some subject prefixes change? Some subject area codes (like ART to ARTH) were adjusted to match what’s commonly
used across California. This makes things clearer and more consistent statewide.
Will courses that aren’t part of CCN still transfer? Yes! Courses that haven’t changed will still transfer as usual under existing agreements
with CSU, UC, private colleges and HBCUs. Visit www.assist.org for a complete list
of transferable courses.
I completed ART 001A but my degree now lists ARTH C1100. Do I need to retake ART 001A? No! ART 001A = ARTH C1100, so your previous course still meets the requirement.
I took HIS 0017A and didn’t pass. If I take HIST C1001 and pass, will that replace
my grade? Yes! HIS 017A is the same course as HIST C1001, so your new passing grade will count.
I took an honors CCN course (e.g., ENGL C1000H) at another college, but Mission doesn’t
offer it. Will it count? Yes! Honors courses (with an H) count toward degree requirements and can be used in
the same way as ENGL C1000.
I am following CSU GE-B and it includes ECN 001A. If I take ECON C2002, will it satisfy
the same requirement? Yes! ECON C2002 satisfies the same requirements as ECN 001A on the AA/AS Graduation
Requirements, CSU GE-B, IGETC as well as the Cal-GETC. However, other changes have
occurred so please refer to your degree audit prior to enrollment.
