Graduate Program Single Courses

Prospective students interested in our graduate programs have the option to enroll in single courses as a non-degree seeking student. Non-degree students enroll in the same courses as graduate program students without having to pay an additional fee or commit to a full degree or certificate program. This is the preferred option for students who wish to sample our course offerings, ease into our online format and explore a particular area of interest. Up to 6 credit hours earned as a non-degree student can be applied to the master’s degree program, so long as a student is accepted and in good academic standing.
