Whether the need is for a course carrying credit or no credit, Continuing Education staff will meet with representatives of groups or agencies to plan the needed courses. These courses and other non-standard university courses developed for personal or professional enrichment are offered as Extension courses. Special Session and Extension courses are open to the general public and there is no formal admission requirement. However, enrollment in Special Session or Extension does not constitute formal admission to the University. No limit has been established on the number of Extension units that may be applied toward teaching and school service credential requirements.
Most courses meet during the late afternoon or evening hours, or on weekends.
Special scheduling arrangements, however, are possible. Fees for courses providing university credit are listed in the Fees and Expenses section of The University Catalog or the current Continuing Education Bulletin . For individuals who have been out of school for some time, the REX program might just be the way to make the transition back to the academic world. Individuals enrolling in the REX program earn Extension credit. Regional Programs Office Regional Programs is the facilitating and coordinating mechanism of the Universitys vision of all of Northern California as its extended campus.
