Complete the form below and upload a course syllabus for each course for which you are seeking approval.  This petition will not be accepted without a syllabus for every course.  If you are submitting multiple courses for review, you must complete the form individually for each course.

Tips:

  • This web form should be used for courses that are offered in the School of Natural Sciences (BIO, CHEM, DSC, ESS, MATH, PHYS).  For courses offered in the School of Social Sciences, Humanities and Arts (ECON, PSY, SOC, etc.), their webform can be found here.
  • Syllabi should include a description and summary of the course, required texts and readings and a week by week course outline.  A catalog description is not enought information for articulation to be determined. Save the syllabus document as a PDF or .doc/docx document
  • EAP Students: Please provide a syllabus in English. If translated from another language, attach the original to the English translation
  • Submit the course approval webform as early as you can, as the process can take a minimum of 8 weeks upon submission for a decision to be made.
  • Community college courses cannot apply as upper division courses or towards upper division requirements.
  • UC Extension courses cannot be used towards degree requirements as the courses are intended for non-degree seeking students.
  • Prerequistes vary, per institution. Approval of a direct articulated course does not guarantee that you meet a prerequiste for a course taken outside of UC Merced.

When did/will you take this course? Example: Summer 2015
