Admitted Graduate Non-Degree - Unclassified (no major)
Program Description
Students in this status have been admitted to the University of Oregon but not to a degree program. This is a non-degree-seeking classification intended for students who wish to take graduate level coursework without earning a graduate degree. Students in this classification may apply either as unclassified (no major) or to a specific non-degree major (e.g., licensure programs).Do not apply for this status if you wish to pursue a formal graduate degree program.
Things to Consider:
-Cost: Admitted Graduate Non-Degree students pay full graduate tuition and are not eligible for federal financial aid.
-Transfer of Graduate Credit: If you take courses in this status and are later admitted to a University of Oregon graduate program, you may request to transfer some of your credits to a master's or doctoral program.
-Other enrollment options: Applicants considering this status may wish to consider two other University of Oregon student types:
-Postbaccalaureate undergraduate: For students pursuing a second bachelor's degree or only intending to take undergraduate coursework.
-Non-Degree Seeking: Formal admission is not required for this status.
-Visas: Applicants who need a student visa to enter the United States are not eligible for this status.
