X 400 to X 499: Generally post-baccalaureate credit-bearing courses and lecture series in professional fields; designed in content, focus, and presentation style to standards of instruction used in degree programs. Credit earned in these courses may lead to the award of formal certificates by UCLA Extension, and may be transferable for advanced standing in degree programs in professional studies elsewhere, subject to the procedures of the receiving institution.
I might be missing something but I don't read that as graduate level.
400 level usually means senior (year 4) of undergrad, but this states "post-bac" which MAY mean graduate, but not automatically. It only means that the intent is to take the class after a bachelor's degree has been earned. My money says it will come in as undergrad.
EDIT: I also found this "Undergraduate classes (XLC 1-199) are transferable for unit, subject credit, and grade point average (GPA) in the college of Letters and Sciences at UCLA.
XLC 200-299 and XLC 400-499 are UCLA regular session Graduate and Professional level courses. Units earned at the graduate or professional level through Concurrent Enrollment will not provide advanced standing to students who are subsequently admitted to higher degree programs through UCLA's Graduate Division. (Certain course requirements for higher degrees may be waived, but only with the approval of the Graduate Division on the recommendation of the student's department at the time of admission.)
XLC 500-series courses (doctoral-level seminars) are open to Concurrent Enrollment but subject to various approvals. The process takes approximately 8 weeks. For requirements, contact Extension's Dean's Office, 10995 Le Conte Avenue Room 770, Los Angeles, CA 90024-1333. Call (310) 825-2362 for further information." https://www.uclaextension.edu/pages/str/howtoEnroll.jsp
So who the heck knows, they clearly do their own thing. My head hurts.
