College of Education Academics

If you decide to apply for degree status in the future, your non-degree application fee will be credited to the regular admissions application fee and you will need to petition for admission to the degree program.

Non-degree students of either type may seek admission to a degree program. Non-degree students who seek admission to a degree program must:

  • Meet all regular admissions criteria
  • Complete all regular procedures
  • Present all documents normally required of degree-seeking applicants to that program

Courses taken by a non-degree student, who later enters a degree program, will count towards the completion of the program, to the extent that those courses fall within the normal requirements of the program and to the extent, that the student's performance in the course(s) is acceptable within the established time limits for that degree, whether taken initially as a degree or non-degree.

Admission as a non-degree student does not guarantee admission as a degree-seeking student.
