For students entering Fall 2009 and later
Disciplinary Communication (DC)
The new Disciplinary Communication (DC) general education requirement will replace the W requirement for students enrolling at UCSC fall quarter 2009, and after. Students will be required to acquire five credits in writing-intensive classes appropriate to their academic major during their junior or senior year. Students must complete the University of California Entry Level Writing Requirement and satisfy the Composition C1 and C2 requirements before enrolling in a course satisfying the DC requirement.
