How to Request an Evaluation of Coursework

 

Steps:

1. Enroll at Santa Barbara City College (SBCC).

2. Submit official transcripts to SBCC Admissions and Records from all past institutions you have attended. 

   • Follow the instructions on Incoming Transcripts to submit your transcripts to SBCC Admissions & Records and verify your transcripts have been received. Transcripts sent anywhere other than directly to Admissions & Records from your other institution are considered unofficial.

   • AP Scores: see Step 4, second bullet point.  

3. Verify your official transcripts were received by SBCC Admissions and Records. If your official transcripts are not on file with Admissions and Records your request for evaluation will be denied. 

4. Submit a request for evaluation to the Transcript Evaluation Office:

   • Prerequisite and corequisite clearance requests: Follow the instructions on the Prerequisite Instructions & Forms page.
