Services to UC San Diego Extension

The following page describes borrowing privileges and eligibility for other library services for UCSD Extension students and Concurrently-enrolled Extension students.

  • Extension students are those currently enrolled in at least one course through UC San Diego Extension, but who are not enrolled in any regular UC San Diego courses.
  • Concurrently-enrolled students are those who are not regular UCSD students, but are taking regular UCSD courses for credit as a non-matriculated student and paying per-unit fees through UCSD's Extension. Concurrent students earn full academic credit and participate in courses as regular UCSD students, subject to the same conditions, requirements, and standards.

Policy

  • The library's general policy states that CONCURRENT students receive standard UCSD student-level borrowing privileges and access to other library services and privileges during the time that they are concurrently-enrolled.
  • Alternately, EXTENSION students receive standard services at the level of support provided to the public.
