<p>Due to health issues my child dropped out of a private college after 1 quarter. Her grades were good. She does not want to go back to that school. She is considering a CC.
Her transfer plans are not firm. Doubts she wants a UC but isn’t sure. She is trying to plan a schedule for fall. She is considering starting with a few courses off the IGETC list.
She is also considering taking Spanish 1. She took spanish through Ap in high school. She knows Spanish 1 doesn’t satisfy IGETC but is it at least UC transferable for someone who has already taken spanish in high school? A strong background in Spanish is desirable for her career path.</p>
<p>I don’t get exactly what you are asking. Any classes would be good so long as it fulfilled something in the IGETC, but she should probably look to getting her english / math requirements out of the way first. Also, perhaps she should only take the minimum courseload (12 units) if she’s still having health issues.</p>

<p>Most importantly, see a counselor!!! Maybe even two or three, but through those visits your daughter must be able to understand the whole process, and rely only on information that she finds from direct sources.
IGETC will be her bible for the next 2 years. And also <a href=“http://www.assist.org%5B/url%5D”>www.assist.org</a> . This site tells you the classes she must take by university and by major. Combine IGETC and assist, get good grades, throw some volunteering and clubs in the pot, and she can transfer into any UC. All it takes is motivation from this point on.
Oh, and if her health issues result in any disability in the slightest, you can seek servises from disabled student services. It can help tremendously. Also use free tutoring services on campus and office hours of professors. </p>
<p>GOOD LUCK!</p>
<p>I FORGOT: to fulfill transfer language requirement, she only needed to take two years of spanish in high school. As of now, she does not need any more language courses. But if she wants to continue learning spanish for her own development, she should drop out of spanish 1 immediately, and challenge herself into spanish 4, or maybe even 5.</p>
