Applying Credit to a CSUN Degree

For matriculated CSUN students, Winter Term course credits are degree-applicable as they are in any other term.

Non-matriculated students are limited in the number of degree-applicable units they may take in Extension (i.e., Special Sessions in Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall terms). Non-matriculated students, if later admitted to CSUN and matriculated, may only apply up to 24 credit units toward a bachelor's degree and 9 credit units toward a graduate degree, credential or graduate credit certificate program. In all cases, the department chair responsible for the program will determine which, if any, courses taken as a non-matriculated student can and should apply to a particular degree/credential/certificate program.
