**Kempe Center Summer Institute students only need to submit the application, the fee and a letter from their program director.
For returning non-degree students:
To enroll in a course, download the permission form. This is a fillable PDF, which allows for electronic signatures. Complete the form and obtain the instructors’ signatures indicating their permission for you to take the courses. Applicants must present documentation of sufficient academic background to show adequate preparedness for the course in question to the instructor responsible for the course. Obtaining the instructors’ permission does not assure your registration in the courses.
After obtaining the instructors’ signatures, submit the form to the Office of Admissions & Student
Affairs.
Starting one week before the start of classes for the semester, you may register for the courses using the online registration system UCD Access.
If a course is full, you will be able to enter the waitlist for the course. Check back frequently to see if you have been enrolled in the course from the waitlist as you will not receive an email confirmation if you move from the waitlist into the course. The drop/add deadline for each semester is published in the academic calendar.
You have until this date to add or drop courses. A late fee of $60.00 will be assessed for registration after the drop/add deadline. After the drop/add deadline, you must obtain the Associate Dean of Academic Affairs permission to withdraw from
a class.
You will receive a bill from the Bursar’s Office for the course by email. You must pay for the courses by the stated deadline, which is two weeks after the start of classes.
If a class is dropped after the drop/add deadline, a “W” will appear on the official transcript and you will be responsible for paying the full tuition and fees for the course. Dropping courses after the drop/add deadlines will result in 0% tuition reimbursement.
