UC-WIDE SPECIAL PROGRAMS

There are special enrollment programs within the UC system that allow UCLA students to take courses at other UC campuses. Through these programs, students can explore unique course offerings not available at UCLA, study with specific faculty, or participate in specialized learning opportunities. To learn more about each program, review the information provided below.

For information and questions about the UC wide UC Center Sacramento and Quarter in Washington programs, please connect with the Center for Community Engagement .

Important factors to consider:

  • Coursework completed through these programs does not count toward UCLA’s academic residence requirement. If you have questions or concerns about how this may affect your residency, please consult with a College Advisor before enrolling.
    • To ensure that you remain on track with your degree requirements, we encourage that you speak with both your College and departmental advisors about your plans to participate in one of these programs.
  • Approval to enroll in one of these programs does not guarantee that the course will satisfy specific degree requirements, such as College or General Education requirements.
    • Students are encouraged to consult with their department and/or College advisors if they wish to have coursework completed through these programs applied toward specific degree requirements.
  • While UC Cross-Campus Online and Simultaneous UC Enrollment are considered forms of concurrent enrollment, students do not need to submit a College Student Petition for concurrent enrollment approval if they are accepted into these programs.

As an UCLA student, in addition to your UCLA coursework, you may enroll in an online class offered by another UC campus. A list of available courses offered through UC Online can be found on the program’s website  .

To be eligible to enroll in a UC Online class, you must have:

  • Completed a minimum of 12 units at UCLA as a matriculated student
  • Be enrolled in 12 units at UCLA by the third week of the term you wish to enroll in the online course
  • Be in good academic standing

Enrollment will be monitored by the College through Monday of the fourth week of instruction to ensure you remain enrolled in 12 UCLA units. Students enrolled in fewer than 12 UCLA units will be dropped from the UC Online course.

Students may enroll in only one UC Online course per term – if a student wishes to take more than one course in a term, they may submit a College Student Petition to their College Advising unit with no guarantee of approval.
