@bryanchung, Did you divulge those ESL courses to your international coordinator at De Anza?
If you did, the UCs will honor whatever equivalent the CCC determined. (If your CCC says it’s the equivalent of a non-UC transferable course, then the UCs will too.)
If you didn’t, it’s likely they will consider it the equivalent of English 98/99 “self study” credit because it’s still considered course(s) outside of the [“13-year system”](http://admission.universityofcalifornia.edu/international/applying-for-admission/freshman-requirements-country/index.html#thirteen).
