Which activities can be counted towards my 30 hours?

Through participation in the Career Center’s Career Pathway to Success Program in the Co-Curricular Record (CCR), students are empowered to explore diverse opportunities beyond the classroom, preparing them to make a meaningful impact in their future careers and communities. They will develop essential skills in critical thinking, effective communication, resource awareness and leadership, allowing them to hit the ground running as UC San Diego students and building on the competencies of existing Career Center services and programs. 

The opportunity to earn official recognition on the Co-Curricular Record (CCR) is open to any current UCSD student, allowing equitable access to all undergraduate and graduate students.

ADDITIONAL ACTIVITIES  (20 hours):

If you have completed your hours before the validation deadline and would like the position added to your CCR Transcript, please email the program Validators so they can verify your hours:
