Non Matriculated Students

Help us to help you. Non-matriculated students are encouraged to read the policies below BEFORE submitting the personal information web form. 

STEP 1: Read these policies

Non-matriculated students wishing to enroll in courses during the summer or winter sessions, may do so when registration opens.

Non-matriculated students wishing to enroll during the academic year (fall and spring) may do so only on/after date noted in the academic calendar.

Please note that course enrollment is subject to availability and is always at the discretion of the Department.

Non-matriculated students are not eligible for federal financial aid. 

Enrollment limitations:

Non-matriculated Undergraduate Students

Non-matriculated Graduate Students

Up to Two courses (max 8 credits) fall and spring semesters

Shortened sessions have lower credit limit

Up to 9 credits fall and spring semesters

Shortened sessions have lower credit limit

  Can accumulate up to a maximum of 9 credits

Must maintain a GPA of 2.0 or higher

For students applying to the Graduate School:  All course work completed while in a non-matriculated status is considered transfer credit. As such, should the student apply and be accepted for matriculation to a graduate program, only 9 graduate credits may be transferred upon approval of the advisor and Assistant Vice President of Graduate & Extended Learning.

Undergraduates must apply for admission after 24 credits to continue taking courses.

STEP 2

 

Please refer to the Schedule of Classes to select classes and the Academic Calendar for important dates and deadlines. 

Students who wish to take undergraduate courses through the Department of Communication Disorders may need to obtain permission from the Department of Communication Disorders and/or they may need to apply to the Post BA Program in Communication Disorders in this link.

 



STEP 3

Complete and submit the PERSONAL INFORMATION FORM and include all required information to avoid delays.

Requesting to take graduate courses?  You will be prompted to upload your transcript.

Are you a high school student under age 16? You will be prompted to upload a letter of support from your guidance counselor.

STEP 4

Your information will be received by Records & Registration and you will be notified by email about the creation of your student account. If any information is missing or if we are unable to process your request, you will be notified by email. You will receive instructions by email about when and how to register yourself.

Since non-matriculated students are the last cohort to be registered, it is possible that there will not be available seats once the registration opens for non-matriculated students.  Please plan accordingly.
