Auditor

Students who are admitted and enrolled in courses but receive no college credit are considered audit students. Auditors must be high school graduates or hold a GED (General Education Development). Auditors pay regular fees for enrollment and are not eligible for federal or state financial aid.

Audit students may not receive credit for courses in which they were registered as auditors unless they repeat the course for credit. Students initially admitted as auditors who wish to obtain college credit for courses must seek re-admission under another category.
