Non-degree Graduate Credit

It is possible for non-degree students to take graduate courses with instructor permission. Enrollment does not guarantee future admission to the Psychology PhD or another graduate program. However, it is an appropriate means to pursue graduate credit for professional development and personal enrichment.

Graduate-level courses taken as a non-degree student are not guaranteed to transfer should an individual later be admitted to a degree program. The Department of Psychology will not consider non-degree credits for application to PhD requirements prior to an offer of admission.
