Cross Enrollment with Four-Year Colleges and Universities allows students to:

  • Enroll in one lower division class each semester at a participating 4-year school;
  • Earn academic credit (lower division) at one of the participating colleges or universities; and
  • Gain university experience before you transfer

College of Alameda provides its students the opportunity to enroll concurrently in one lower-division course each semester at any of the participating colleges or universities listed below. The program is designed to increase exposure to a college or university where a student might not otherwise plan to enroll, to allow student access to complete required courses not available at their home campus, and to enable students to test their potential for success in a college or university environment.
