Undergraduate Admissions

Special Student and Certificate Programs

Special Student Status

Students who enroll as special students may take up to 24 credit hours, or enroll in a specialty program, without being admitted to a degree program. The 24-credit limit does not apply to students who have already earned a baccalaureate degree. Special students should indicate their status on the application form and submit it with the application fee and a transcript from the last college attended, if applicable. Once the admission process is complete, students may register for courses. Special students are not eligible for a degree unless they follow the regular admissions procedures for degree-seeking students. Additionally, special students are not eligible to apply for financial aid.

Certificate Programs

Database Management Systems Certificate
English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) K-12 Add-on Endorsement
