Math Course Equivalencies

The Mathematics and Statistics Department at California State University, Long Beach (CSULB) will accept certain courses as equivalent to our courses.

Please note that if you have failed a course at CSULB, you may not repeat/delete it with a course at another institution. You may only repeat/delete it at CSULB (and even then, certain limitations apply to repeating courses).

From California Community Colleges

To see what California community college courses count for which CSULB course, consult assist.org, the official transfer articulation system for California public colleges and universities.

Courses from California community colleges are automatically articulated with CSULB courses as soon as CSULB's Enrollment Services evaluates your transcripts.

From Other Universities

The following applies to other Cal State Universities, Universities of California, private schools, or out of state schools.

1. In the table entries below that list multiple courses, you have to take both courses there to receive credit at CSULB.
2. Equivalencies are not automatic in the CSULB system. Contact an advisor and ask for an "Advisor Request" to count the course as equivalent. You can only do this after your course is showing up on your CSULB record.
3. CSULB does not accept online math courses for transfer credit equivalency from the following institutions: Louisiana State University, Ocean County College, University of North Dakota.
4. This list is not exhaustive. If you have a class you think might be equivalent to one of our classes, please contact the moderator. To be safe, do this before you take the external course.
5. This list tells you which courses from other schools CSULB will accept for credit at CSULB. They do not necessarily go the other way. CSULB has no control over whether other schools will accept our courses; if you hope to take a CSULB course for credit elsewhere, you must check with the other school in advance to see if they will accept it.
