Non-Degree Seeking and Returning Students

Non-Degree Seeking

Transfer applicants without a Bachelor's degree who wish to apply for admission as a non-degree seeking student should follow the transfer application instructions.  Please be sure to indicate "non-degree seeking" on the application.

If you are interested in enrolling as a non-degree seeking student, you must submit a completed application form, official transcripts from all colleges and universities previously attended and the application fee. You will be reviewed under the same standards for admission as degree-seeking students. If you have already completed a bachelor's degree, transcripts are not required; however, since you may need to demonstrate that you have met pre-requisites for courses, it is a good idea to have one available to advisors. Admitted non-degree students register on a space-available basis beginning on the first day of class. Students wishing to enroll for one semester and transfer the course work back to their home institution may be admitted with an application and a letter of permission from an academic advisor or dean at the home institution.

Post-Baccalaureate

Transfer students with a Bachelor's degree who wish to apply for admission as a non-degree seeking student should follow the transfer application instructions with the following exception: students who earned their Bachelor's degree in the United States do not need to submit college transcripts.
