Morning, all. We have several "non-degree" options for pursuing grad-level courses, but we do require a base admission to graduate studies—basically verification of the bachelor's degree. We do not admit them in conditional admission status.</div>

When someone wants to take a course for credit outside a regular program, they are admitted as a "special status" student. They need written permission from the course director involved, submit an application (to get them into the system), and pay tuition. </div>
