Neither formal admission to the university nor transcripts are required to take advantage of this program. Taking courses through Open U. is ideal for those who wish to: • Take credit courses without being admitted to the university. (Credits earned can later be applied to a degree program, with certain restrictions.) • Examine a field of study before applying to a degree program. • Update their job skills or obtain professional training. • Improve their grade point average prior to applying to a university. Jump-start your college career with Open U. courses! Simply follow these four easy steps: 1. Qualify for Enrollment Most people qualify to take courses through Open U., including: members of the general public, former Cal State East Bay students or alumni; non-resident students not currently enrolled in a university program, and students disqualified from this or other institutions. Regularly enrolled, resident and non-resident students are not permitted to take courses through Open U. 2. Choose Your Courses Students may enroll in any of the 1,000+ courses listed in the university catalog, providing that the prerequisites are met. (Note: some departments have restrictions on graduate-level courses.) View upcoming courses in the online class schedule at www.csueastbay.edu/schedule. 3. Apply The Open University application process is now entirely online. Visit www.ce.csueastbay.edu/courses/open_university prior to enrolling for information about application instructions and deadlines. A separate Open University application must be submitted for each term in which you plan to enroll.

All students enrolling during the late add period, (beginning on the seventh instructional day of the term), must obtain permission numbers from the academic department offering the course. Therefore, since Open University students will not have access to register until the seventh instructional day of the term, it is important that Open University students obtain permission numbers prior to attempting to enroll. These permission numbers will provide students with the department consent necessary to enroll and it will be up to each individual department to determine if the department office or the instructor will distribute these permission numbers. Please keep in mind that permission numbers will not override class capacity and course requisites/prerequisites. Additionally, students should keep in mind that permission numbers are randomly generated, so the permission number that a student is given does not affect the student’s ability to enroll and/or the order in which they can enroll. Open University students enroll on a space-available basis, so if the class you’ve selected is closed, you may add yourself to the waitlist.

Policies COURSE CREDIT Academic Credit Courses conferring academic credit are numbered 1000 through 7999 and are divided into eight ranges. Many courses in this catalog are upper-division level extension (7000-7699) and graduate level extension (7700-7999).

Unit Equivalency Cal State East Bay teaches on a four-quarter, rather than a semester, schedule. Courses are measured in quarter units of credit, convertible to semester units. 10 hours of class time equal one quarter unit. A quarter-to-semester unit conversion chart is provided below.

Courses numbered 7000-7999 are usually applicable toward educational credits at Cal State East Bay, state clear credential, salary increments, and some state supplementary authorizations.

Quarter Units 1 2 3 4 5 6

To receive elective units in degree or credential programs at Cal State East Bay, students must request a letter grade (CR/NC is not acceptable). Continuing Education Credit Courses in this catalog numbered 8000 through 8999 carry CEUs, a nationally recognized measure of professional development which may apply toward re-licensure, promotion, or career advancement. Noncredit Noncredit courses, numbered 9000 through 9999, are designed for personal enrichment. Honors Credit A maximum of 15 units taken through Open University may be applied toward graduating with honors from the University.

Continuing Education reserves the right to discontinue, postpone, or combine classes and to change instructors without penalty.

If students have never taken courses from us before, we ask for a social security number (SSN) and date of birth during the registration process, to ensure that a unique record is created in our registration system. Under California law, students are not required to provide us with their SSN. However, to take advantage of tax credits such as the Hope and Lifetime Learning Credits, students will need to provide a valid SSN so that we may report their tuition expenses to the IRS. We only ask for a student’s SSN and date of birth once. After the initial enrollment, a University NetID will be assigned to the student, which will enable him/her to register for Continuing Education courses online as well as take advantage of numerous University services. Registration is incomplete until full tuition and fees have been paid. Registrations and fees must be submitted no later than the first meeting of the course. Payment at a first class meeting may be accepted if space is available and the instructor approves. Late registrations are subject to a $25.00 late fee. These policies apply to both credit and non-credit courses. Course Cancellation Cal State East Bay Continuing Education reserves the right to cancel courses without prior notification up to and including the first day of class because of low enrollment, instructor/ faculty availability, or other reason. In the event of course cancellation, all registration fees will be held in the student’s accounts and may be applied to a rescheduled offering of the course, transferred to apply toward another course registration, or refunded to the student. Administrative Fees Late Registration—$25.00

GRADES Posting of Grades The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act prohibits grade information from being provided over the telephone. Grades are posted to the Web approximately 16 days after the end of each quarter. Students can check their grades through MyCSUEB (my.csueastbay.edu), using their University NetID. Official transcripts are available for order after grades have been posted online. Grading Chart The grading chart below, used in regular University instruction, also applies to the grading of Continuing Education courses. It is the student’s responsibility to be aware of the grading and academic policies and procedures, which can be found in the University catalog at www.csueastbay.edu/ ecat.

* An “I” must normally be made up within one calendar year of the end of the term during which it is assigned. If the incomplete grade is not completed within the approved time period, the “I” will convert to “IC,” which is counted as an “F” in GPA calculations. ** A “WU” is assigned when a student has not withdrawn from a course and also has failed to complete course requirements. This is counted as an “F” in GPA calculations. See “Withdrawals and Refunds” section for more details. Incomplete Grades It is the student’s responsibility to request a grade of incomplete for any classes. Instructors assign such grades only if the student has completed a definable portion of work, and only if the student has supplied pertinent information to the instructor to justify the request. If the instructor agrees that the student’s request for an incomplete is justified, the instructor and student must complete and sign a Report of Incomplete Grade Form. This form outlines the rationale for an incomplete grade, specifying what course requirements must be completed in order to assign a final grade. The Report of Incomplete Grade form can be obtained in person from the Continuing Education Office, or by calling (510) 885-3605.

RECORDS Official Records California State University, East Bay is authorized under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (Buckley Amendment) to release “directory information” concerning students, unless the campus has received prior written objection from the student stating that information is not to be released.

Students should refer to current IRS regulations for more information.

WITHDRAWALS AND REFUND POLICY You may drop courses online through MyCSUEB, or submit your request to Continuing Education either by letter or using the Withdrawal and Refund Form. Failure to drop a course online, or file a written request to withdraw, before the end of the drop period may result in a failing grade. Please note that drop dates vary by program. Also note that a stop payment order on a check does not constitute an official withdrawal, nor does it relieve the student’s financial obligation for the course. If Continuing Education cancels a class, you will automatically receive a full refund. Refunds will be issued in the same form as payment received. Processing takes approximately six weeks. Some Continuing Education programs have course-specific refund policies that supersede the refund policy below. The most common of these policies applies to most of our online and home study courses, and states that no refund will be given once a student has been given access to the course material. Course-specific refund policies are noted in the quarterly course schedule. Refunds are based on the duration of the class and the date the refund is submitted online. Refunds for independent study and individual study are counted from the first day of the quarter, regardless of the actual registration day. Materials fees are non-refundable.

Continuing Education Frequently Asked Questions What is a certificate program? A certificate program provides in-depth study in a particular subject matter. Each program is routinely reviewed to ensure that the necessary knowledge and skills covered meet current industry needs.

Who teaches the courses? Our courses are taught by well-qualified practicing professionals and instructors who are selected based on their experience and expertise regarding the latest developments in their fields.

Can courses be taken individually? Yes, courses can be taken individually for academic units, professional development (CEUs), or personal enrichment.

When do the courses referred to in this Annual Catalog take place? We offer printed quarterly schedules and our Web site is updated quarterly with course meeting information. Visit us online at www.ce.csueastbay.edu/search to view our online schedule, or request a printed copy by calling (510) 885-3605, or e-mailing us at ce@csueastbay.edu.

What are the different types of credits? Academic credit is standard educational credit and is usually conferred with a letter grade. Continuing Education credit is given in the form of Continuing Education Units (CEUs). CEUs are non-academic credit, which may apply towards re-licensure, promotion, or career advancement. Noncredit courses are designed for personal enrichment. How are CEUs credited? One CEU is equivalent to 10 hours of instruction. What are the benefits of a certificate? Completion of a certificate program demonstrates to your current and future employers that you are committed to professional advancement. It also conveys a mastery of a specific body of knowledge or skill. As a retraining option, a certificate program can sometimes provide the competitive edge you need to change career direction. I work during the day. Can I take classes in the evening? Many of the courses we offer take place in the evenings or weekends to accommodate those who work a standard workday. We also offer many courses online. What is required to complete a certificate? Requirements vary for each program and are listed with each program description in this Annual Catalog. How long does it take to complete a certificate? It depends on the program and how many courses you take within any given academic quarter. See individual program pages for requirements, but most programs can be completed in as little as nine months.

How can I get more information on a specific certificate program? You may directly contact the program coordinator listed with each program in this Catalog. If you’re not sure who to contact, you can reach the Continuing Education staff via e-mail at ce@csueastbay.edu or by telephone at (510) 8853605.
