Understanding Course Numbers

All Lower Division Transfer (LDT) and Career Technical Education (CTE) courses are taught at a college level. LDT courses with letter prefixes and numbers of 100 or higher should transfer to a four-year institution. 

CTE courses with letter prefixes and numbers of 100 or higher, letter-prefix courses that have numbers below 100, or numbers that include a decimal point generally will not transfer to a four-year institution. However, there are some exceptions; see your advisor concerning transferability.

You are not limited to taking all LDT or all CTE courses; you may mix and match them depending on your program. Consult your advisor.

If a course number is changed, the new course number will appear on your permanent record only if you took the class after the change was approved.
