Non-Degree Seeking
Being a non-degree seeking student means you are enrolled in courses without the intention of completing a degree or certificate program. This option is for individuals who want to take classes transiently (to transfer back to their primary learning institution) or for personal enrichment, professional development, skill-building, or to fulfill prerequisites for another program. Non-degree students have more flexibility in course selection, but do not qualify for financial aid from the Department of Education. While they earn college credit for completed courses, students may also choose to for greater convenience.
