SDSU Open University

Register Now

San Diego State University’s Open University program is ideal for former students who need a certain course or credits to graduate, among others. Open University allows the public to attend regular SDSU classes and earn credit, if space is still available after SDSU students have registered.

The program also benefits a variety of other potential students:

• High school graduates wanting to explore SDSU classes
• Students seeking acceptance into SDSU or needing to boost their GPA
• Students who missed the SDSU application deadline and seek to enroll in courses
• Working adults looking to complete their degree, advance their career, or learn new skills by taking an individual course
• Students who attend other universities and would like to earn transferable credits

University admission is not required, and registration is easy. The university’s class schedule and registration information are at neverstoplearning.net/openu. Registration is open beginning Wednesday, April 26 both online and at the SDSU College of Extended Studies registration office on Hardy Ave. Summer semester courses begin Monday, May 22.

There are also 10 Open University certificate options: 

• Accounting

• Professional Writing
• Teaching English as a Second or Foreign Language (TESL/TEFL)
