the available internships.
EDU 181 and EDU 183 may replace EDU 100, and also require
off-campus internships. NOTE: EDU 181 and EDU 183 are not

form is reviewed and approved, a CRN will be issued to you. Learn

What is transcript notation?
If you’re a UC Davis student working in an internship that meets
a specific set of requirements, you may have your internship
recorded on your transcript as a transcript notation. In order to
qualify, an internship must:
- Be 40 hours over a significant period of time, usually a
ten-week quarter
- Be supervised and evaluated by professionals and not
fellow students
- Involve significant activities, assignments and/or projects
- Have paperwork submitted within the first two weeks of the
quarter.
- To receive Transcript Notation (TN) please review
this link and follow all directions: https://icc.ucdavis.edu/find/internships/tn.
Transcript Notation is managed by the Career
Center.
What is the Incomplete grade policy?
An Incomplete (“I”) grade may only be assigned by the course
instructor. “I” grades must be completed by the end of the third
quarter in residence after they were issued. If the course
instructor is no longer at UC Davis, contact the School of
Education for assistance at eduadvising@ucdavis.edu.
Visit the Office of the
University Registrar website for full information on
Incomplete (“I”) grades.
Where can I find education class schedules?
Undergraduate and Ph.D. education class schedules are listed on
the Quarterly Course Schedules web
page. They are updated each year in March. Class
schedules are subject to change.
What are waitlists and PTAs?
Students may join the waitlist for a closed class and are either
added if another student drops or (if space is available) can be
issued a Permission to Add number (PTA) from the faculty.
PTAs are faculty approved and are not issued until the second
week of a term. Student Services does not issue any PTAs.
You must be on the waitlist and reach out to the faculty member
teaching the course to request consideration for a PTA.
