Auditing Classes

  • Auditing is dependent on course capacity, resource availability, and instructor approval.

  • Audited courses receive no credit or grade points on the transcript.

  • Audit requests are not permitted prior to the first day of classes for any given semester.

  • Once a course is approved for audit, students may not later request to receive credit for the course except by officially retaking the course and completing all required coursework.

  • The deadline for audit requests is the “Adding Classes” deadline, which coincides with the “Last Day to Drop without Notation on Transcript” deadline. Students who drop a course after this deadline will receive a “W” (withdrawal) grade and are not allowed to continue auditing the course.

Students

Admitted students may request to register for a course as an auditor. Regular tuition, delivery fee(s), and course fee(s) will be assessed when auditing a course.
