Common Mistakes for This Transfer Path
Las Positas covers all 6 listed courses
Every UC Berkeley Business Administration prep course in the transfer agreement has a Las Positas match, so none of the listed prep has to wait. Take them all before you apply.
Start with BUSN 40 and ECON C2001
BUSN 40 and ECON C2001 sit at the start of their sequences for this route, so they fit your first semester, next to ENGL C1000 for English composition.
ENGL C1000 starts a 2-semester chain
ENGL C1000, then ENG 4 each need the one before, so the chain takes 2 semesters at minimum. Begin ENGL C1000 early.
