The Graduate School recognizes the desire or need of college graduates to enroll for a limited number of graduate courses prior to enrolling in a graduate degree program. A maximum of 12 credit hours is permitted on this basis. Students who wish to take courses “non-degree” need not apply for Admission, but should contact the Student Service Center in Seidlin Hall for information about registration.
Credit hours earned “non-degree” before admission to an Alfred University graduate degree program may or may not be applicable toward the degree sought. If denied admission, the applicant may not register for further non-degree graduate work. During the Fall and Spring Semesters, non-degree study is not permitted in graduate Art or Art History courses but is permitted in Allen Term and the Summer Term.
