Non-Degree Definition


Non-degree status provides the opportunity for students to take courses or special programs for credit without formal admission or matriculation into the University. Students may apply for enrollment under non-degree status if they are not pursuing a degree but intend to have credits received from the University transferred elsewhere, or desire to take courses for personal enrichment only.
