The Course Identification Numbering System (C-ID) is a statewide numbering system independent from the course numbers assigned by local California Community Colleges. A C-ID number attached to a course signals that participating California colleges and universities have determined that courses offered by other California community colleges are comparable in content and scope to courses offered on their own campuses, regardless of their unique titles or local course number.

Thus, if a schedule of classes or catalog lists a course bearing a C-ID number, for example ANTH R101, which has been approved for C-ID ANTH 110, students at Oxnard College can be assured that it will be accepted in lieu of a course bearing the C-ID ANTH 110 designation at another community college. In other words, the C-ID designation can be used to identify comparable courses at different community colleges. However, students should always go to www.assist.org to confirm how each college’s course will be accepted at a particular four-year college or university for transfer credit.

The C-ID numbering system is useful for students attending more than one community college and is applied to many of the transferable courses students need as preparation for transfer. Because these course requirements may change and because courses may be modified and qualified for or deleted from the C-ID database, students should always check with a counselor to determine how C-ID designated courses fit into their educational plans for transfer. Below is the list of Oxnard College courses (the “R” is for Oxnard) that have been approved by the C-ID program and given a C-ID designation at the time of the catalog publication. For an updated list of courses approved for C-ID, refer to the C-ID website at www.c-id.net.
