Open Enrollment
Open enrollment is the method by which members of the public can take undergraduate courses offered by UC San Diego. Most of these classes are online and are offered for a fee. If you are an international student, please refer to the Concurrent Enrollment site. If you are a current high school student in a partnering school district, please refer to the Partnership Enrollment site.

Fees
Students will be notified of acceptance within 5 business days of submitting their application. Full payment of all fees is required at the time of registration. Fees for Open Enrollment courses are assessed per unit at the rate of UC San Diego Summer Session tuition from the previous summer. All fees are subject to change without notice. The current fee is $1958.43 per 4 unit course.
Policies
Open Enrollment students are part of the UC San Diego community and are expected to follow University and UC-wide policies, including the Student Conduct Code and UCSD Policy on Integrity of Scholarship.
Open enrollment students earn full academic credit and participate in courses just like matriculated UC San Diego students, and are subject to the same conditions, requirements, and standards.
Unless enrolling on a non-credit basis, students may take courses either for a letter grade or pass/no pass grade (pass is a C- or better).
Dropping/Withdrawing
You can submit drop or withdrawal requests from your MyExtension student portal or in writing by sending an email to unex-reg@ucsd.edu. The email should contain your name, student ID number (U##—##—####), course number, and name (e.g., BILD 2—Multicellular Life).
Refunds will be granted if you submit a drop request in writing prior to the refund deadline.
Admission to the University of California
Enrolling in open enrollment courses does not in itself provide preference in admission to the University of California degree programs. Students interested in applying to UC degree programs should refer to the UC Admissions website or the admissions office of the UC campus they wish to attend for details about the admissions process.
If offered admission, students will need to submit an official transcript from UC San Diego Extension. UC San Diego Extension will review and award the credit after the student accepts the offer of admission.
Students can request transcripts after course completion through Parchment. More information can be found HERE.
