Auditing Courses

Graduate students will be permitted to audit courses within their matriculated discipline on a space-available basis and with permission of the Associate Dean and Director of the Graduate Program. Students must hold a bachelor's degree to be permitted to audit.

Full-time matriculated graduate students (9 or more credits) may audit any two additional courses to the maximum of 6 credits free of additional charges and exclusive of the summer session.

Part-time graduate students may audit one course to the maximum of 3 credits free of additional charges and exclusive of the summer session.

Non-matriculated graduate students will pay one-half the graduate tuition and appropriate fees to audit a course.

Course fees for all auditing students will be required as well as any special fee that may be attached to the course.

Payment information: Payment for audited courses must be made in full. The deferred payment plan is not available for use for audited courses.

Refund information: A student withdrawing from a course that is being audited will be granted a refund for tuition only if applicable, in accordance with the refund policy stated in the "Expenses" section of the college catalog. If the status of a student changes at any time during the semester, the policy that relates to the current status of the student will be adhered to, (i.e., students dropping from full-time to part-time status will be required to follow the policy of a part-time student).

Policy on academic credit: At no time will credit be granted for an audited course. However, the student may repeat the course for credit during another semester. Any change from audit status to credit or vice versa may be made up to the last day of the Add/Drop Period. (Consult the Academic Calendar for exact dates.)

Transcript: Records of courses that have been audited are part of the student's academic record and appear with the academic coursework on the transcript. Transcripts will be issued upon written request and submission of appropriate fee. The grade of "AU" is assigned for audited courses.
