Admission & Registration

Non-degree Seeking

Admissions

Those students who are only interested in taking a few courses without obtaining a degree should do the following:

  1. Request an A-Number
  2. Apply Online
  3. When you are at the Admissions Login page, click "First time user Account Creation"(If you have previously made up a Login and PIN, you can use the same one. Just login with the same Login and PIN, and click on “New” application)
  4. Create a Login and Pin and click "Login"
  5. You will be asked to select the term.
  6. Then you must select the application type.
  7. Select Option #6 (Non-Degree Seeking Admission)
  8. Make sure to click on “Application is Complete” button when you are done. Otherwise the application will NOT be submitted. There is no charge to submit this application. If the student is charged to submit the application, then the wrong application has been selected.

If you have taken classes as a non-degree-seeking student in the past you may use your past login and pin, then click on "new" application. If you have forgotten your login and pin, click on "new user account creation."
