The acceptability of such courses toward specific requirements is determined by the individual college or school. Students should refer to the Advanced Placement Examination chart and their transcripts to eliminate the possibility of duplication of credit. Thirty-five of the final 45 quarter units completed by each candidate must be earned while in residence on the Davis campus. Each summer session in which a student completes a course of at least 2 quarter units may be counted as half a quarter's residence. Not more than 18 of these 35 quarter units may be completed in summer session courses at UC Davis.
Registration is with the consent of the instructor only.
University Extension courses are not accepted as part of the university residence requirement. There are additional residence requirements for students enrolled in the Colleges of Letters and Science and Engineering. If you are planning to study abroad during your senior year, you should consult your college dean's office. With the approval of the dean of a student's college or school, a candidate for the bachelor's degree who was in active service in the armed forces of the United States in the year preceding the awarding of the degree may be recommended for the degree after only one quarter of university residence in which the candidate completes at least 16 units or passes a comprehensive examination in the major or field of concentration. An exception to this rule is made for those students undertaking certain honors courses.
