TAA's

A transfer admission agreement (TAA), is a written contract outlining the courses, units, and grade point average you will have prior to your transfer to Cal State Monterey Bay. This contract can be obtained from the community college you attend. A TAA must be approved by both your community college and CSUMB.

An approved TAA guarantees that you will be admitted to the CSUMB for the specified term, provided you complete the terms of the agreement.  Under this agreement, your $55 application fee will be waived as well.
