Enrollment Conditions

All Students

• Approval for cross-enrollment is valid for only the one term specified and is subject to space availability, deadlines, registration procedures, and priorities of the host campus. You must reapply for each term you wish to cross-enroll.
• Evidence of completion of course prerequisites may be required at the time of enrollment (transcript).
• Students are subject to all administrative procedures of the host campus. Students who choose to cancel cross-enrollment must process an official drop at the host campus or risk having an unsatisfactory grade recorded on your permanent record.

Outgoing UCI Students

• Academic advising is only available at UCI for UCI students. Approval from your UCI academic advisor is required to ensure the course meets UCI requirements and/or is transferable.
