Nondegree Admissions
A nonrefundable application fee of $45 is required with this application for all
nondegree applicants. Applicants who wish to attend the University for one
semester or for up to 18 credit hours may be approved to do so upon submitting

semester. Enrollment will not be permitted after classes are in session. Students in
a nondegree status are not eligible for fi nancial aid.

processing fee if they are not continuously enrolled during the regular fall and
spring semesters (excludes summer terms).
