Courses taken for audit do not earn credit or quality points. Audited courses are assigned a grade of "AU" and cannot be used to fulfill major or core requirements. Not all courses are available for audit. Students may audit eligible courses on a space-available basis, as determined by the instructor and the department offering the course. There is no limit to the number of courses a student may audit.
Auditing a course requires the instructor's signature on the Add form. The conditions and requirements of the audit are set by the instructor or department.
Students registered for 12 or more credit hours in a fall or spring term and paying flat-rate tuition may audit undergraduate courses free of charge, in addition to any applicable fees. This policy does not apply to the summer term. Students wishing to audit part-time in any term will be charged half the per-credit-hour rate, plus any applicable fees. Additional fees for books and materials apply to all course audits.
To change from audit to graded status (or vice versa) for a full semester course, students must submit the request to the Registrar’s Office by the end of the fifth week of class. For courses less than a full semester, changes must be made before the third face-to-face class meeting or prior to the end of the second week of an online course.
