Students who enroll in an Associate Degree for Transfer (ADT) program at a California Community College (CCC) can transfer to a CSU and graduate with only 120 units. There are two kinds of ADT programs: Associate in Art for Transfer (AA-T) and Associate in Science for Transfer (AS-T).

• To graduate from a CSU with 120 units, students must choose a bachelor's program that is similar to the associate degree they earned at their community college.
