GRADE AND TRANSCRIPT INFORMATION

Academic credit is granted upon successful completion of a Wildlands Studies project.  Academic credit is conferred by California State University Monterey Bay Extended Education, which is accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) and a campus within the California State University system.  California State University Monterey Bay Extended Education credit is recognized at other universities throughout the United States, Canada and abroad.  All participants, including those within the California State University system, should check with their campus registrar or academic advisor to confirm transferability.

If you desire academic credit, please note the following:

1. Wildlands Studies issues letter grades A-F for courses.  Incompletes will only be granted in cases of exceptional circumstances, and it is your responsibility to complete papers and assignments on time. Incompletes automatically become a grade of ‘F’ or ‘NC’ after 3 months if a grade change, issued by the instructor, is not received.

2. If you want to have your transcript forwarded from California State University Monterey Bay Extended Education to yourself or your home campus, you will need to initiate this process individually.

To order transcripts, go to the California State University Monterey Bay Extended Education website, and click on "Forms".  Or simply CLICK HERE for the Transcript Request Form.  Complete the transcript request and follow directions on where to send the form.  If you have questions on your transcript after you have successfully completed a Wildlands Studies project, you may call the CSUMB Extended Education office at (831) 582-4500.
