Non-matriculated status permits students to take courses to explore degree options for personal enrichment, professional development, or fulfilling degree requirements for another institution, which would include cross-registration. Non-matriculated status is reserved for students who are not seeking a degree at the time of entry. Non-matriculated students do not follow the admission requirements of matriculated students. The non-matriculated student status is designed to allow any interested individual to attend college credit courses without declaring a major or seeking a degree. Students must have the prerequisites for any course they wish to register for, permission of the instructor and permission of the Dean.
Due to visa requirements, International students are not eligible for non-matriculated status. Non-matriculated students do not receive federal or institutional financial aid.
Students may register up to a maximum of 12 credits as a non-matriculated student. If they wish to continue courses at the College, they would need to apply for matriculated status through the appropriate admissions process. Credits earned as a non-matriculated student may be subsequently applied to an ACPHS degree. To register as a non-matriculated student, please complete the Non-Matriculated Student application form and return to the Registrar’s office.
