We've created a "bundle" of courses for new and continuing students in Fall 2022! These bundles include a schedule of courses that will:

• focus on different Interest Areas,
• provide you with a full course load, and
• meet CSU and UC transfer requirements.

Click on the links below to see the schedule of classes you can take this fall at SRC in each interest area:

• Arts, Language and Communication with English Support 
• Arts, Language and Communication with Math Support
• Information Technology, Business and Economics
• Math and Engineering
• Science and Health with Chemistry
• Science and Health with Biology
• Social Science
• Explorer

Course schedule bundles for Fall and Spring are designed to provide you:

• English and Math in the first semester or year,
• a minimum of 12 units (which makes you FT3 eligible for free tuition!),
• a reasonable schedule that allows for breaks/lunch and time for tutoring,
• a sampling of classes that introduce you to the various Interest Areas, and
• classes that meet the degree, certificate, GE and/or IGETC requirements.

What the course schedule bundles are not:

• These are NOT Learning Communities - these classes aren’t linked nor do they require a petition to enroll.
• Students don’t have to take all the classes listed in the bundle - these are just suggested classes for new students.
• This is not to replace counseling appointments or individual advising information received from a counselor! This is just a general starting point for new students in their first semester or year.

Hist 120 - History of the United States Before 1865 We'll cover American history from what Native American societies were like before the arrival of Europeans to the founding of the United States and through the end of the Civil War.
