Official Transcripts

University credits on a transcript from CSU, Chico are recognized by a wide range of organizations – including several states’ departments of education and school districts – allowing teachers to use university credits toward licensure or certification renewal. Teachers must confirm with their school/district administrator, state department of education, or other relevant organization if CSU, Chico university credits are approved by their organization based on specific state or local requirements.
