In the Real Estate curriculum, special attention is given to the California Department of Real Estate license requirements. This degree program is designed to prepare students for employment in real estate or related fields. It also meets the educational requirements for the California Real Estate Broker License and helps prepare the student for both the salesperson and broker state examinations. Most real estate classes also meet educational requirements for appraisal licensing.
Estimated 20 graduates per year
Upon successful completion of this program, students will be able to:
• Differentiate and describe the essential elements and legal effects of various real estate documents, steps in an escrow, real estate financing and investment, and real estate valuation techniques.
• Differentiate and describe how to conduct oneself in a professional and ethical manner in any real estate office.
The state has changed the name of the Department of Real Estate (formerly Bureau of Real Estate). The DRE no longer
accepts any Economics courses (except Real Estate Economics) for the salesperson's exam or broker's exam, so we are
updating this degree to match. We are adding BUS 109 Elementary Accounting as another option for an accounting class.
We are also removing RE 125, 292 & 294 because they have been deactivated..

Cuyamaca College submitted the appropriate LMI from the COE. The COE recommends proceeding with caution when developing a new program, but defers to the region for a program modification because while these occupations’ entry-level and median earnings are above the living wage, a high number of institutions train for them. Additionally, while the analysis suggests that a supply gap exists, colleges should note that there is a significant number of (17,019) active realtors in San Diego County, which is not captured in the supply gap analysis.
