Common Course Numbering System
Changes Effective Fall 2025
As a result of AB 1111, California Community Colleges are in Phase 1 of adopting a common course numbering system for all general education and transfer pathway courses. The purpose of the CCN system is to ensure that comparable courses across all community colleges have the same course number. The goal is to streamline the transfer process from California Community Colleges to four-year postsecondary educational institutions and reduce excess credit accumulation.
The chart below provides a list of courses that will be offered throughout the SCCCD with a comparison of the current course prefix and number and the new course prefix and number based on the CCN system beginning fall 2025. If you have any questions, please contact your counselor at the college you are attending or plan to attend.
