Auditing Classes

Students who audit courses attend classes without receiving grades or credit. Students must meet all prerequisites for the courses they audit. Students who audit courses must pay the regular tuition and associated fees. They attend classes during the same periods as students who will receive grades and credit for the courses. Students who audit courses receive all course materials (except tests). Instructors may elect to provide practice tests for audit students.

Students who wish to audit classes must receive approval from the appropriate division deans prior to registration; deans will notify instructors of audit approvals. Students must complete and sign audit forms and obtain signatures from the deans before submitting the forms to the Registration and Records Office. Students may register to audit courses on a space available basis during the late registration period. Students may not change from credit status to audit status or vice versa once the term starts. This restriction applies to the official drop/add period. The Director of Registration and Records will not change audit grades to credit grades after students' complete courses. Students may not use financial aid to pay tuition and fees for courses they audit. Because auditing courses may affect financial aid status, students receiving financial aid must report to that office to disclose their auditor status.
