. (a) The Regents of the University of California, the
Trustees of the California State University, and the Board of
Governors of the California Community Colleges shall have as a
fundamental policy the maintenance of a healthy and expanded student
transfer system. Both the University of California and the California
State University shall have as a basic enrollment policy the
maintenance of upper division enrollment, which are students who have
attained upper division status, at 60 percent of total undergraduate
enrollment. This goal shall be met through programs aimed at
increasing the numbers of qualified transfer students from the
community colleges without denying eligible freshmen applicants.
(1) The California State University shall maintain its upper
division enrollment, which are students who have attained upper
division status, at approximately 60 percent of total undergraduate
enrollment. Its planning documents shall reflect this policy.
(2) Commencing in the 1991-92 academic year, the University of
California shall progressively increase the percentage that upper
division enrollment systemwide is of total undergraduate enrollment
through the 1995-96 academic year until that percentage reaches
approximately 60 percent. This shall be accomplished through
increases in the numbers of community college transfer students
admitted to upper division standing at the university without denying
eligible freshmen applicants. Planning documents shall reflect these
expected increases.
(b) The governing board of each segment shall ensure that
individual university and college campus enrollment plans include
adequate upper division places for community college transfer
students in all undergraduate colleges or schools, and that each
undergraduate college or school on each campus participates in
developing articulation and transfer agreement programs with
community colleges. The governing boards shall meet this goal within
their respective general statewide planning framework used to attain
and maintain the state's goal of a 60/40 ratio of upper to lower
division students, their segmental enrollment planning processes, and
campus planning regarding program balance, educational quality, and
other relevant goals.
