Nondegree Enrollment
Nondegree Student Information
A student who does not wish to or is not ready to pursue a degree
program but desires to take credit courses may be qualified to
enroll as a nondegree student. Nondegree students may register
for any university course for which they have the necessary academic
background and qualifications. Many students begin their studies
in nondegree status and apply the credit they have earned toward
a degree program in one of the schools or colleges of the university.
Instructions for Enrollment as a
Nondegree Student
Complete our Nondegree
Enrollment Application (pdf) and return it to the Academic
Advising Office, Battelle-Tompkins 100, American University,
4400
Massachusetts Ave., NW, Washington, DC, 20016-8012. If you have
any questions regarding the enrollment process, call us at (202)885-2453.
International Nondegree Student Enrollment
International nondegree students must present evidence of successful
completion of high school (or equivalent) and courses taken in
any colleges or universities attended. Nondegree international
students who apply for admission to a degree program must request
that official documents be sent directly to the Undergraduate
or Graduate Admissions office.
Admission from Nondegree Status
Students wishing to transfer from nondegree status at American
University to graduate degree status must submit a formal application
for admission to the Graduate Admissions office. If a student
is accepted into a graduate degree program, up to 12 credit hours
of graduate-level course work completed in nondegree status may
be applied to a graduate degree program, or up to 21 credit hours
earned in a completed graduate certificate program.
The following students ordinarily may not register in nondegree
status:
- Students currently enrolled as undergraduate- or graduate-degree
students in any of the member institutions of the Consortium
of Universities of the Washington Metropolitan Area.
- American University students who have not completed their
degree programs.
- Students who have been dismissed from American University
or another college or university within the previous twelve
months.
