The number of units given for transfer credit will not exceed the number of units of the Cal Poly course (e.g., a 3 semester-unit course will only count for 3 quarter units, not 4.5 quarter units, for a 3-unit Cal Poly course).

No course may be used to simultaneously satisfy both engineering support and technical elective requirements.
