Non-Degree-Seeking Students
Requests for permission to enroll as a non-degree-seeking student should be addressed to Academic Advising.
Undergraduate students may apply for enrollment with non-degree status if they do not wish to pursue a degree or certificate. Students holding at least a baccalaureate degree are eligible to enroll for graduate courses as non-degree-seeking students. Students with non-degree-seeking status may transfer NLU credits elsewhere or take courses for personal enrichment.
Students enrolled with non-degree seeking status:
- Are subject to all regulations of the University
- Are not eligible for financial assistance
- May not register in advance
- Are not assured of admission to the University
- Who wish to be admitted to a degree or certificate program must apply through the Office of Admissions, at which time any credit accrued will be evaluated in accordance with prescribed limits. Coursework taken as a non-degree-seeking student is not automatically applied to degree programs at the University.
