UC Education Abroad Program

All classes taken on the UC Education Abroad Program (EAP) are listed individually with their accompanying grades on your UC Davis transcript. The courses are UC approved courses and count toward your 180 unit requirement for graduation. However, the Biological Sciences Major has the final authority to determine how the coursework is used to fulfill specific major requirements!
