Senior citizens who meet the income eligibility requirement and who have completed a minimum of 75 percent of degree requirements may enroll during normal registration periods without payment of tuition and fees. In addition, the act provides for audit of courses offered for academic credit and also for enrollment in noncredit courses without payment of tuition and fees on a space-available basis, regardless of the taxable income level. Tuition, however, may be charged for courses designed exclusively for senior citizen groups. No senior citizen may change registration status in any given semester once he or she has initially registered for classes. Graduate Course Enrollment by Undergraduates Undergraduates may request approval to take a 500-level graduate course either for reserve graduate credit or for undergraduate credit.
Special circumstances apply.
Summer Term Summer enrollment is open to eligible undergraduate and graduate students on a priority registration basis. The Summer Term offers more than 750 daytime and evening classes in four sessions from five to eight weeks. Academic departments take advantage of the Summer Term's unique opportunities to schedule innovative as well as traditional courses. Therefore, many undergraduate and graduate students use the Summer Term as a third semester with the option of taking up to 14 credits. As a means of assessing the academic preparation of its students, the university requires the submission of certain test information.
