Note: This requirement must be completed by passing the course, no later than the second semester of attendance at Cal State L.A.

University policy requires that all undergraduate students who do not have a bachelor's degree are required to pass a course that introduces them to higher education at Cal State LA. Freshmen who have declared a major must meet this requirement by enrolling in the IHE course, usually titled Transition to Higher Education, offered by the College of their major. Freshmen who have not declared a major should enroll in a section of UNIV 1010 - Introduction to Higher Education, offered through the University Academic Advisement Center. Students who fulfill this requirement do not have to repeat it if they decide to change majors.

Undergraduate transfer students may choose to complete a Transition to Cal State LA course (3000 level) offered by the appropriate College.

All students with declared majors should see an academic advisor in their college/department prior to enrolling in the 1000-level Introduction to Higher Education course or the 3000-level Transition to Cal State L.A. course.

Undeclared majors should see an academic advisor in the University Advisement Center, located in the University Library Palmer Wing, 1040A. Students who fulfill this requirement do not have to repeat it if they change majors.

Course offering information is subject to change. Please refer to the schedule of classes for up to date course offerings.
