Admissions - Donahoe Higher Education Act - Education - CA

Section § 66201

This section expresses California's commitment to ensuring that everyone who lives in the state and is motivated and able to succeed in higher education has the chance to enroll in a college or university. The law acknowledges that residents should be able to continue their education as long as they meet academic and institutional requirements. It reaffirms the state's promise to provide a place in public higher education for every student who can benefit from attending.

It is the intent of the Legislature that each resident of California who has the capacity and motivation to benefit from higher education should have the opportunity to enroll in an institution of higher education. Once enrolled, each individual should have the opportunity to continue as long and as far as his or her capacity and motivation, as indicated by academic performance and commitment to educational advancement, will lead him or her to meet academic standards and institutional requirements.

The Legislature hereby reaffirms the commitment of the State of California to provide an appropriate place in California public higher education for every student who is willing and able to benefit from attendance.

Section § 66201.5

This law encourages both the University of California and the California State University to have 40% of their undergraduates as lower division students (freshmen and sophomores) and 60% as upper division students (juniors and seniors). To achieve this balance, they should focus on admitting more transfer students rather than turning away eligible freshmen applicants.

It is the intent of the Legislature that both the University of California and the California State University shall seek to maintain an undergraduate student population composed of a ratio of lower division to upper division students of 40 to 60 percent. Consistent with Section 66201, it is the intent of the Legislature that the University of California and the California State University reach and maintain this goal by instituting programs and policies that seek to increase the number of transfer students rather than by denying places to eligible freshmen applicants.

Section § 66201.7

This law asks the Regents of the University of California to allow, and requires the Trustees of the California State University to allow, each campus to create a process where full-time undergraduate students can apply to delay their start date by up to one academic year. The decision to approve such a delay is up to each university and will be considered individually for each student.

The Regents of the University of California are requested to, and the Trustees of the California State University shall, require each campus in their respective systems to develop a process through which a student admitted to full-time undergraduate status may apply to defer his or her enrollment for up to one academic year. The decision as to whether to grant the deferral of the enrollment may be made, at the discretion of the affected university, on a case-by-case basis.

Section § 66202

This law guides how the California State University and University of California should prioritize enrollment for undergraduate resident students. The order of priority is: continuing students in good standing, community college transfer students in an approved program, other community college transfer students, other qualified transfers, and new freshmen or sophomores. Priority within these categories is given to recently discharged veterans, community college transfers, previously enrolled students in good standing, applicants needing programs not available elsewhere, and those facing hardship attending elsewhere. Moreover, veterans who were students before military service get top priority among veterans.

(a) It is the intent of the Legislature that the following categories be followed, insofar as practicable in the following numerical order, for the purpose of enrollment planning and admission priority practice at the undergraduate resident student level for the California State University and the University of California:

(1) Continuing undergraduate students in good standing.

(2) California Community College transfer students who have successfully concluded a course of study in an approved transfer agreement program.

(3) Other California Community College students who have met all of the requirements for transfer.

As stated in legislative findings, the transfer function plays a key role in meeting the state’s goals of educational equity. Therefore, the Board of Regents of the University of California and the Board of Trustees of the California State University shall declare as policy for this paragraph and paragraph (2) of this subdivision that students who are eligible to transfer and who are from historically underrepresented groups or economically disadvantaged families shall be given preference, to the fullest extent possible under state and federal law, statutes, and regulations, in transfer admissions decisions, and shall design policies in conformity with state and federal statutes and regulations intended to facilitate their success in achieving transfer.

(4) Other qualified transfer students.

(5) California residents entering at the freshman or sophomore levels.

(b) It is further the intent of the Legislature that within each of the preceding enrollment categories, the following groups of applicants receive priority consideration in admissions practice in the following order:

(1) Residents of California who are recently released veterans of the armed forces of the United States.

(2) Transfers from California public community colleges.

(3) Applicants who have been previously enrolled at the campus to which they are applying, provided they left this institution in good standing.

(4) Applicants who have a degree or credential objective that is not generally offered at other public institutions of higher learning within California.

(5) Applicants for whom the distance involved in attending another institution would create financial or other hardships.

(c) It is further the intent of the Legislature that those veterans referred to in paragraph (1) of subdivision (b) who were enrolled in good standing at a campus of the University of California or at one of the California State Universities prior to military service receive priority over other veterans recently released from military service.

Section § 66202.5

This law emphasizes California's commitment to supporting more student enrollment at the University of California and California State University systems. It ensures that eligible California freshmen and community college transfer students have places in these universities. The state pledges to provide necessary resources so these students are accommodated based on previous agreements and plans.

If certain majors are 'impacted' or have limited space, transfer students should still have a chance to enter when slots open up. Freshmen admissions are managed to make sure transfer students have fair opportunities. The state also aims to fund programs for this purpose through the annual budget, promoting educational equity and diversity.

The universities must ensure fair treatment for all freshman, continuing, and transfer students while considering the overall educational needs, equity, and diversity goals.

The State of California reaffirms its historic commitment to ensure adequate resources to support enrollment growth, within the systemwide academic and individual campus plans to accommodate eligible California freshmen applicants and eligible California Community College transfer students, as specified in Sections 66202 and 66730.

The University of California and the California State University are expected to plan that adequate spaces are available to accommodate all California resident students who are eligible and likely to apply to attend an appropriate place within the system. The State of California likewise reaffirms its historic commitment to ensure that resources are provided to make this expansion possible, and shall commit resources to ensure that students from enrollment categories designated in subdivision (a) of Section 66202 are accommodated in a place within the system. In addition, transfer students from paragraphs (2) and (3) of subdivision (a) of Section 66202, shall be accommodated at the campus or major of choice specified in the redirection agreement, the approved transfer program or written agreements, unless these majors have been declared “impacted.” For impacted majors, students shall be given the opportunity to have access to the major when spaces become available, and new freshmen shall be admitted to the major in a controlled manner to ensure that all transfer students described in paragraph (2) of subdivision (a) of Section 66202 have an equitable chance of being accommodated. It is the intent of the Legislature to fund programs designed to accomplish the purposes of this subdivision through appropriations made in the Budget Act to the public institutions of higher education, and the annual Budget shall contain appropriations necessary to accommodate all students from all of the categories designated in subdivision (a) of Section 66202.

The segments may, in implementing these enrollment plans and admissions practice priorities, consider the overall needs of students in maintaining a balanced program and a quality curriculum, and are expected to consider the state’s goals of educational equity and racial and ethnic diversity of students and faculty in the planning and management of their admissions practices. It is further the intent of the Legislature that campus enrollment planning processes provide for the equitable treatment of the following: (1) all eligible entering freshmen; (2) continuing students in good standing; and (3) eligible community college transfer students with regard to accommodation in majors.

Section § 66203

This law requires the California State University and the University of California to keep track of applicants who are denied admission. They must also keep data on how many qualified applicants could not get into their first-choice campus and were instead offered spots at other campuses, as well as how many of these applicants turned down those alternate offers.

The California State University and the University of California shall keep a record of the applicants denied admission and develop and utilize an information collection system which indicates the number of qualified applicants who could not be accommodated at their campus of first choice and were redirected to campuses of alternate choice and the number of qualified redirected applicants who declined an offer of admission to an alternate campus.

Section § 66204

This law section ensures that all public high school students in California have access to a core curriculum that satisfies the admission criteria for the University of California and California State University. The Superintendent of Public Instruction must advise schools on the importance of making course lists accessible to students, encouraging them to take college-preparatory programs. Schools shouldn't guide students away from these programs due to cultural or language reasons.

Additionally, the University of California is asked to help schools understand how to get their courses certified as meeting admission criteria, develop internal processes for this purpose, and keep accurate, accessible lists of certified courses for students. The goal is for higher education institutions to support elementary and secondary education in preparing students for college.

(a) The Superintendent of Public Instruction shall assist all school districts to ensure that all public high school pupils have access to a core curriculum that meets the admission requirements of the University of California and the California State University. The Superintendent of Public Instruction shall advise school districts that maintain high schools about the importance of making readily available to each high school pupil the current list of courses offered by the school attended by that pupil that are certified by the University of California as meeting admissions requirements. It is the intent of the Legislature that each public high school shall provide the full precollegiate program, provide adequate course sections in precollegiate programs to accommodate all its pupils, and regularly counsel pupils to enter those programs and courses. There shall be no policy or practice in any public elementary or secondary school of directing, especially for cultural or linguistic reasons, any pupil in kindergarten or any of the grades 1 to 12, inclusive, away from choosing programs that prepare that pupil academically for college.

(b) The University of California is requested to assist each school district that maintains a high school in order to ensure all of the following:

(1) School districts understand the process by which courses are submitted to the University of California to be reviewed and certified as meeting admission requirement criteria.

(2) School districts have an internal process for developing courses and submitting courses for review and certification by the University of California in order to meet admission requirement criteria.

(3) School districts maintain accurate lists of courses that are currently offered by the high schools and are certified by the University of California as meeting admission requirement criteria.

(4) Updated lists described in paragraph (3) are readily made available by the school districts to each high school pupil and a copy of that list is annually provided to each high school pupil.

(c) It is the intent of the Legislature that the public and independent institutions of higher education participate in programs that assist those in elementary and secondary education in meeting their responsibilities in preparing students for college.

This section outlines the California Legislature's expectations for the University of California and California State University admission standards. Firstly, it calls for fair and easy-to-understand admissions processes. Secondly, it encourages allowing students to apply for admission even if they have certain course deficiencies due to circumstances beyond their control, as long as they agree to make up the missing coursework. Thirdly, it promotes consultation with California’s diverse ethnic and cultural communities. Additionally, the universities are encouraged to strive for a student body that reflects the state's diverse cultural, racial, geographic, economic, and social background while maintaining high academic standards.

(a) In determining the standards and criteria for undergraduate and graduate admissions to the University of California and the California State University, it is the intent of the Legislature that the governing boards do all of the following:

(1) Develop processes which strive to be fair and are easily understandable.

(2) Consider the use of criteria and procedures that allow students to enroll who are otherwise fully eligible and admissible but who have course deficiencies due to circumstances beyond their control, and, when appropriate, provide that the admission requires the student to make up the deficiency.

(3) Consult broadly with California’s diverse ethnic and cultural communities.

(b) It is the intent of the Legislature that the University of California and the California State University, pursuant to Section 66201.5, seek to enroll a student body that meets high academic standards and reflects the cultural, racial, geographic, economic, and social diversity of California.

These criteria must be approved by the CSU Academic Senate and implemented uniformly across all campuses.

If CSU fails to set this up by the deadline, then it's mandatory to recognize all high school CTE courses that meet established curriculum standards as fulfilling elective credit requirements. The law encourages using federal and other nonstate funds, like those from the Carl D. Perkins Act, to cover associated costs.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, on or before January 1, 2014, the Trustees of the California State University shall develop and implement a procedure for allowing a student to satisfy a general elective course requirement for purposes of admission to the California State University by completing a high school career technical education course that meets either of the following:

(1) Criteria adopted pursuant to subdivision (b).

(2) Model uniform academic standards for career technical education courses adopted pursuant to Section 66205.5.

(b)

(1) The Trustees of the California State University, in consultation with the State Department of Education and in accordance with paragraph (2), shall adopt criteria for the purpose of recognizing career technical education courses adopted pursuant to subdivision (i) of Section 51220 that satisfy the completion of general elective course requirements for admission to the university.

(2)

(A) The criteria shall be based on the model curriculum standards established pursuant to Section 51226 and any additional criteria that faculty members of the California State University identify as necessary to prepare students for success in coursework unique to a specific major or educational program.

(B) The criteria shall be developed by faculty members of the California State University and shall be subject to approval by the Academic Senate of the California State University. Upon approval, the academic senate shall recommend the criteria to the trustees.

(C) In adopting the criteria, the trustees shall rely primarily on the recommendations and judgment of the academic senate.

(c) The trustees shall adopt regulations, based on recommendations of the academic senate, that identify the majors and educational programs for which completion of a career technical education course that meets the criteria adopted pursuant to subdivision (b) satisfies a general elective course requirement.

(d) The academic senate shall ensure that the criteria adopted pursuant to subdivision (b) are implemented consistently among all campuses of the university.

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, if, by January 1, 2014, the California State University has not developed a procedure for allowing a student to satisfy the completion of a general elective course requirement for the purposes of admission to the university that satisfies the requirements of subdivision (b), the Trustees of the California State University shall recognize the completion of all high school career technical education courses that meet the model curriculum standards established pursuant to Section 51226 as satisfying the completion of a general elective course requirement for the purposes of admission to the university.

(f) The costs of activities necessary to implement this section shall be covered, to the extent permitted by federal law, by funds available pursuant to the Carl D.
