For EAP:

1. Review How to Get Credit.

2.  Optional:  The School of Social Sciences provides EAP advising on a walk-in basis for prospective EAP applicants Monday through Friday from 8:00-9:30 a.m.  This service is provided on a first come, first served basis so please allow yourself enough time to meet with the Academic Counselor.  Bring course descriptions for any courses you are considering taking abroad. The advisor will help you determine which courses are likely to meet degree requirements.
 
3. While on EAP, if course availability requires that you change your schedule, feel free to email Ramon (rrmunoz@uci.edu) or Estela (emagana@uci.edu) to ask if other courses are likely to count toward degree requirements.  Please attach course descriptions to your email message.

4. Once your EAP courses are posted on your transcripts, you may schedule an EAP Return appointment with a Social Sciences Academic Counselor by calling 949-824-6803. There may be a pettiioning process to have the EAP courses count for credit toward requirements. Be sure to save course syllabi, projects, assignments, papers, portfolio, etc. as they may be required.

5. For students going on EAP in their senior year, it is not possible to be certified for graduation until at least one quarter after your return due to the time it takes for EAP grades to be posted to your UCI transcript. Please keep this in mind when applying for graduation.

For UC Summer Abroad Programs Meet with an Academic Counselor in the School of your major to determine the procedure to follow if you would like UC Summer Abroad courses to fulfill UCI degree requirements.

For IOP Programs Complete the on-line IOP Credit Contract, available at the UCI Study Abroad Center, once you have chosen an IOP program. This is required if you would like IOP courses to fulfill UCI degree requirements, receive units, and/or receive financial aid. Allow 4-8 weeks for this process to be completed.
