Many pre-professional students need to take two semesters of organic chemistry with a lab. CSUDH's College of Continuing and Professional Education offers a 10-week series of intensive summer classes that satisfies this requirement. Because students are focused on a single class, they often perform better than by taking the classes with a full course load.
The CSUDH College of Continuing and Professional Education has offered this program since 1977. Students from colleges all over Southern California and the US have taken the course and transferred the credit into their university. In addition, the classes help prepare students for the MCAT and DAT exams.
Important Notes:
To start the Registration process, choose your student type (CSUDH or Non-CSUDH) and READ AND REVIEW the Instructions below:
⚠ Once registered, we encourage you to STAY IN YOUR ENROLLED section. As demand is VERY HIGH, we cannot guarantee that you will be able to hold your spot if you change from one course section to another, and you may risk losing your enrollment altogether.
For questions, email: learn@jiejuzhongxin.com or call 310-243-2075.

On Monday, March 25, beginning at 8:00am PT, login to my.jiejuzhongxin.com with your activated student account, and register for your course(s).
If you need assistance, call the CCPE Registration Office at 310-243-3741, Option 1.
REMINDER: You can only use MyCSUDH to register for BOTH the LECTURE/DISCUSSION AND LAB COURSES; you may not register for only one, and the system will NOT let you check out if you do not have both a course and lab. If you need to register for only a single lab or single course, please call the CCPE Registration Office after 8am PT on Monday, March 25 (and please be patient, as we anticipate a VERY high call volume).

You will need to ask your home campus to verify that our courses meet their requirements. However, our courses do qualify students to meet the needs required by most medical schools!
Be sure to provide the Department/Section number, the 5-digit Course #/CN, the Course Title, and the Units; if you are requesting a Lab, you can provide Alternate CN numbers for your 2nd or 3rd choices (for example, if you prefer to take the Lab on the same day as the main course, but want to provide your preference for other lab sections in case your first choice is already full).
No... Please use only one method, as attempting to enroll via multiple methods may result in duplicate registrations, potentially blocking enrollment for other students and increasing the risk of cancellation of any enrollment you may have already secured.
All Non-CSUDH students who successfully completed and submitted the pre-registration form to the CCPE Registration Office Dropbox will first receive an auto-response from Dropbox for receipt of the form.
You should expect to receive an additional response (either an instructional email or other correspondence) from the CCPE Registration beginning Friday, March 22. If you have not received a response by Monday, March 25 at 8am, please contact ceereg@jiejuzhongxin.com.
We anticipate a very high call volume on the first day, but please BE PATIENT... If you are on hold and hear the rotating messaging, please STAY ON THE LINE. That means you are in queue! If you hang up and call back, you may risk waiting even longer to get through.
If you are new to CSUDH and have successfully logged into MyCSUDH, congratulations!
Monday, March 25: Please be aware that for Non-CSUDH students, your accounts were created within the last 24-48 hours; Canvas access does not occur until at least 24 hours AFTER your student account has been activation. Additionally, Dr. Sturm has provided some insight: the course content has not been available to students yet (as we are still several months ahead of the course start dates); she anticipates that they should become available after Spring Break week.
Please feel free to return to this FAQ over the next few weeks for status updates as they are made available.
The cost for the lecture course is $909. The cost for the lab course is $405, plus an $80 lab fee. The total cost is $1,394. Payment is due in full at the time of registration. If you need payment assistance, contact the CCPE Registration Office directly.
If you have questions about course prerequisites, please email: nsturm@jiejuzhongxin.com
If you live outside of the Los Angeles area, and need housing for the program, please contact CSUDH Conferencing for information.
Note: CSUDH is NOT responsible for accommodations before or during Organic Chemistry classes during the summer term. Seeking accommodations in near-by hotels is recommended.
Classes will begin on time, as scheduled, and late or lack of participation for accommodation issues may affect the students’ learning outcomes.
Summer Parking Permits are $10/day, are required for on-campus parking, and can only be purchased in-person at the Campus Cashiers Office. Cash, checks, or money orders are the only accepted forms of payment. For additional information, please visit CSUDH Parking.
Students cannot drop Organic Chemistry courses themselves in the MyCSUDH student portal.
In order to be dropped, please CALL the CCPE Registration Office at 310-243-3741 (Option 1) to be released from a course.
If you are a CSUDH student, you may be eligible for financial aid for this program. Please contact the Financial Aid Office for more information.
Non-CSUDH students are not eligible for CSUDH financial aid.
Most CSUDH courses, whether on campus or online, utilize our Canvas LMS (online learning management system) platform. In addition, to be able to participate in online courses, students may need to use the Zoom videoconferencing system, which is accessed through the course's LMS.
