Nonmatriculated students who are considering the possibility of enrolling in a degree program in the future should be aware that most departments set a limit on the number of nonmatriculated credits that can be applied toward any degree program. For more information on the transferability of nonmatriculated credits, contact the academic advisor within the program you may be considering. Also, please be aware that non-matriculated students do not qualify for student financial aid. Matriculated Student Status Students who have gone through the admissions process and have been accepted into RIT are considered matriculated students. Depending on the requirements of the degree you are seeking to earn, all credits earned as a matriculated student can be applied toward a specific degree program.
Matriculated students can qualify for financial aid.
Matriculated students should go to SIS to register between the hours of 8 a.m. and 9 p.m. EST Monday through Friday. For more information, go to the Registered Student section.
