    Talking Transfer Success Pathway at the Cal State with Guillermo Escalante

    In this episode, we discuss the benefits of the Transfer Success Pathway (TSP) with Associate Dean Guillermo Escalante at Cal State San Bernardino's College of Natural Sciences. CSU Transfer Success Pathway: Your Guaranteed Route from Community College to a CSU What if you could start at a California Community College knowing where you’re headed next? In this episode of Transfer Man Live, we’re taking a closer look at the California State University Transfer Success Pathway (TSP)—a dual-admission program designed to give eligible community college students a clear and structured path to a CSU. The Transfer Success Pathway is designed for students who are entering a California Community College for the first time and have not earned college credit after graduating from high school. Eligible students can enter into an agreement with one CSU campus and one eligible degree program and, as long as they complete the required coursework and meet the terms of their agreement within three years, receive guaranteed admission to that CSU program. But TSP isn't just about the guarantee. Students can also receive personalized guidance from CSU representatives and use the CSU Transfer Planner to explore campuses, majors, admission requirements and coursework while they're still at community college. In this episode, we’ll talk about: • Who is eligible for the Transfer Success Pathway • What “dual admission” actually means • Why students should start thinking about their transfer plan before they have 60 units • And where students can go to find out if they qualify One important detail: students can only have one TSP agreement with one CSU campus and one major, so choosing your pathway should be part of a thoughtful transfer plan. Program availability also varies by campus and degree program. Want to find out more?Start with the official CSU Transfer Success Pathway information and eligibility questionnaire: CSU Transfer Success Pathway Students can also explore campuses, majors and transfer requirements through the CSU Transfer Planner: CSU Transfer Planner And don't forget your community college Transfer Center or counselor. A guarantee is great—but the right guarantee for the right major and the right student is even better. I'm Transfer Man, and remember: Don't just transfer. Transfer with a plan!
