Some UCLA Extension courses are eligible for academic credit that may be accepted at UCLA and other colleges and universities. However, UCLA Extension does not determine transfer credit.
The transferability of UCLA Extension class credit to a specific program is determined entirely by the receiving institution (the school you want to transfer to). You must contact the receiving school directly before you enroll in a UCLA Extension course to confirm that they will accept the credit.
Courses That May Be Eligible
Any course on the UCLA Extension website with an "X" prefix in the course number can potentially lead to the award of academic credit upon satisfactory completion.

Information That Helps Receiving Institutions Decide Transferability
To help the receiving institution make an informed decision, you should provide them with:
- Your transcripts: To download an informal UCLA Extension transcript, click on this page: Transcripts and Enrollment Confirmation
- Detailed course descriptions: Browse the UCLA Extension website for the course you are trying to transfer to another institution.
- Course syllabus: Have your course syllabus handy to share with the receiving institution.
