Release 8 – September 7, 2025

New Features and Enhancements

CSU Transfer Planner Campus (i.e., University and Community College) Portals are built upon the Liaison Outcomes product, and so where you see "Outcomes" listed below, it applies to CSU Transfer Planner as well.

The following enhancements are now available in CSU Transfer Planner Student and Campus (i.e., University and Community College) Portals. If you have any questions about these features, contact a member of your account team or support.

Disclaimer: on rare occasions, a new feature or enhancement may be moved to a future release or otherwise subject to change.

Student & Campus Portals: Cal-GETC General Education Requirements

Beginning in Fall 2025, the General Education (GE) requirements will change from the existing GE pattern. This change stems from the passage of California Assembly Bill 928 (AB 928), the Student Transfer Achievement Reform (STAR) Act of 2021, which mandates a singular lower-division GE pattern, known as the California General Education Transfer Curriculum (Cal-GETC), for students transferring from the California Community Colleges to the CSU or the University of California. Effective Fall 2025, Cal-GETC will become the only GE transfer pattern offered by the California Community Colleges.

Student Portal

The General Education page now has two layouts: one for existing students using the existing GE pattern, and one for new students using the new Cal-GETC pattern. If applicable, students can use a view selector to switch between these views.

The new Cal-GETC General Education page includes several changes, such as:

  • Areas A-F have been renamed Areas 1-6.
  • Mathematics has its own area, English Composition completion requirements have been updated, and the Lifelong Learning and Self-Development area has been removed.
  • The GE total units have decreased from 39 to 34.
  • The Dashboard, Program Progress, FAQ panels, milestone graphics, and program requirement text have been updated to reflect the new Cal-GETC naming and requirements.

Campus Portals

Campus users will see the applicable areas and coursework based on whether a student completes the current General Education page or the new Cal-GETC General Education page. Additionally, you can use the left arrows to minimize the area and course list.

If you use the following GE requirements in your segments or other Transfer Planner features, you will want to now include the corresponding Cal-GETC requirements:

  • A2 Complete (existing GE pattern) corresponds with 1A Complete (Cal-GETC pattern)
  • B4 Complete (existing GE pattern) corresponds with 2 Complete (Cal-GETC pattern)
  • A2/B4 Complete (existing GE pattern) corresponds with 1A/2 Complete (Cal-GETC pattern)
