Visiting Student
A visiting student is a study modality in which a person enrolls in 1 (one) to 4 (four) courses (limited to one course per quarter) in the professional master’s program without being formally admitted to the full program.
Individuals who wish to take courses as visiting students will only pay for the courses they enroll in. If they later apply and are approved in the master’s program selection process to become a full-time student, they may request full credit transfer for the courses they successfully completed, provided that no more than 5 (five) years have passed since the course approval.
The visiting student modality is ideal, and recommended, for those who wish to pursue the professional master’s program but are currently in a personal or professional situation that does not allow the necessary commitment to the full program.
