Approval Process for Visiting Graduate Students

Students who wish to take graduate-level courses for personal or professional development, and do not wish to pursue a master’s degree, may do so by seeking approval to take coursework as a visiting student.

Visiting (also known as non-degree seeking) students are allowed to take a maximum of 9 graduate credit hours. 

Completion of a bachelor’s degree is necessary in order to take graduate level classes. For consideration as a visiting student, please complete the below steps:

1. Complete the online application
2. Pay a non-refundable $25 application fee.
3. Submit official transcript* of institution awarding bachelor's degree.
   *Student copies will not be accepted.

Visiting students are not eligible for financial aid through Drury University.

Taking graduate level coursework as a visiting student at Drury University in no way guarantees admission as a degree seeking student.
