Concurrent Enrollment for Chemistry/Biochemistry Lecture Courses

If you're interested in enrolling in a Chemistry/Biochemistry lecture course through Concurrent Enrollment, please follow these steps:

1. Review the Enrollment Process: Familiarize yourself with the instructions for signing up for classes through Concurrent Enrollment as outlined on UCSD Extension's website.

2. Submit a Concurrent Enrollment EASy Request: For Chemistry Lectures, complete a Concurrent Enrollment EASy Request. Please note: EASy Requests cannot be approved for courses that are already full so check the Schedule of Classes before submitting your request.. Only submit requests for courses with available seats listed on the schedule of classes. Requests are processed on a first-come, first-served basis once continuing students have completed their enrollment period. If a course is full or has waitlisted sections, we will review Concurrent Enrollment requests starting from week 1.

3. Review by Academic Advisor: A Chemistry/Biochemistry academic advisor will review your EASy request. If additional information is required, you will be notified.  If space is available in your desired course, your request will be approved. For undergraduate classes co-scheduled with graduate-level classes (e.g., CHEM 156 and 256), Student Affairs will forward the request to the instructor for review.

4. Attend Lecture Courses: Attend the Chemistry lecture course(s) you wish to add, even if your request is pending approval. Note that attending courses in which your request has been denied is not permitted.
