Course Auditing

A student who wishes to audit a course must first obtain permission from the instructor, the chairperson of the department in which the course is taught, and the Dean of the Graduate School. 

The student must also be eligible to enter the University as a regular, visiting or special student in order to be eligible to audit a course. Students who sign up to audit courses will be permitted to register only during the restricted registration period (after the registration periods designated for degree-seeking and non-degree seeking graduate students). Students who wish to audit courses must be aware of the following: 

  • No credit can be earned for audited courses. 
  • No examination for credits at a later date will be permitted for audited courses 
  • No more than two courses may be audited by a student during a given semester/term 
  • Regular tuition fees must be paid for all audited courses 
  • Courses audited will be included in the computation of a student's course load 
  • The instructor for each audited course must record a grade of "Aud."
