Non-Degree Admission

Individuals who do not wish to pursue a graduate degree may apply as non-degree seeking students. Non- degree status is usually used for applicants who are practicing professionals in the field and who wish to take one or more courses for professional development. Non-degree students may be admitted upon receipt of the following:

• An application for admission.

• Transcripts to document undergraduate and graduate work.

• Written permission from the coordinator/director of the graduate program offering the course. All other courses will be blocked to non-degree-seeking applicants except for the course(s) that have been approved.

Non-degree seeking students who later apply for and are accepted into a degree program may apply a maximum of twelve hours taken as non-degree students toward their degree, but all admissions requirements would apply.

Financial aid is not available for non- degree admission.
