Schedule

You can enroll at any time, based on what month you want to start.  You can enroll in one or more courses concurrently. Enrollment in a given course will give you 12 months in which to complete that course.

Registering through UCSD Extension

You will enroll in a specific section of a course, based on the month in which you want to start.  We will be offering one section per month (start any time in that month).  You will register by manually entering the section ID for the course/month you want to enroll in.
