So...you classify "extension courses" as "correspondence

Tsk.

An "extension course" IS a "correspondence course".


Here's where I have to rain on your parade, Steve.

My first year of grad study at UCLA was in "UCLA extension" status
to avoid very high non-resident tuition. These classes were the
same ones that "regular" status students took. The next year I was
a California resident so I could register for "regular" classes.

When
I had completed all my course work ("matriculation" status) I could
petition for conversion of "extension" credits to "regular"

credits.

Another type of "extension" courses were those taught off-campus,
either at another institution's or at some company's campus.

AFAIK UCLA never had correspondence courses. I wish that they had.
I was enrolled in my last required course when I had to leave the
area because of job transfer.

I don't know whether they still have that "extension" system.


Phil, where did you think you were raining on anything?

Where were we discussing UCLA?
