What is minimum progress?
You are expected to make progress toward your degree by completing at least 36 units per year, an average of 12 units per quarter. AP units taken in high school do not count toward minimum progress. If you have not completed 36 units by the end of the academic year, you may use summer session units (at UC San Diego or a community college offering UC transferable units) to achieve the required minimum progress. Remember, SDCC 1 and SDCC 4 will not give you units toward graduation, but they will count toward the minimum progress requirement. Minimum progress is monitored by Financial Aid and includes earning at least a 2.0 GPA in addition to the 36 unit requirement. Intercollegiate athletes must complete 12 units per quarter to maintain eligibility.
