Non-Degree Student Admissions


An applicant who does not wish to earn a degree may seek admission as a non-degree student and enroll in a credit-bearing course(s) on a space-available basis. For an application for non-degree admissions, please visit the Admissions webpage. Non-degree students are not eligible for Financial Aid or student loans and are billed at the non-degree tuition rate.

Applicants who have completed post-secondary education should submit the Non-degree Admissions application along with an unofficial transcript issued by the Registrar from all post-secondary institutions they have attended. Please be aware that grade reports will not be accepted.

If an applicant has been academically dismissed from a CUNY college, they must remain out of school for at least one semester. Students should review the Standards for Academic Probation and Retention section in this Bulletin, as these standards apply to both degree and non-degree students. First-year students may apply for non-degree admission by submitting a copy of their high school transcript and proof of graduation or a GED diploma.

Additionally, applicants who were educated abroad must provide educational documents with certified English translations, and/or an official evaluation conducted by one of the evaluation services listed below.
