Are you planning on transferring to into the Agricultural and Environmental Education major, the Animal Science major, or the Animal Science and Management major at UC Davis from a community college or another university? Explore the helpful information below to get started!
Set yourself up for success:
In order to make your transfer to UC Davis as smooth as possible, we recommend COMPLETING the equivalent course series listed below at your current institution prior to transfer. Work with your academic advisor or counselor for guidance on determining which courses at your current institution match UC Davis courses.
If you are attending a California community college, you can also use ASSIST.org in partnership with your advisor or counselor to identify which classes transfer. Please note, we recommend viewing course articulations by department rather than by major for the most accurate information.

- Note: CHE 2C is not necessary for the major but if you are interested in veterinary school, then we recommend that you take it.)
- Organic Chemistry (equivalent to CHE 8A and CHE 8B or CHE 118A and CHE 118B at UC Davis)
