Non-Matriculated Student Enrollment Procedures

Non-matriculated students are those who are enrolled in credit courses but have not been officially accepted into a degree program.  Credits earned as a non-matriculated student may later be transferred to a degree program.

Enrolling as a Non-Matriculated Student:

  1. Submit the online Non-Matriculation Application.
  2. A $50 application fee.  (Fee is waived for employees of the University.)
  3. An official transcript (verifying the minimum of a bachelor's degree) from an accredited institution. Electronic transcripts (ex. e-Script, Parchment) from your graduating institution are required.  Please send to education@stlawu.edu. In order to enroll in graduate coursework, we must be able to verify that the minimum of a bachelor's degree has been awarded. If you earned a degree at St. Lawrence University, submit only an advising transcript of your coursework.
  4. Non-matriculated students must register for coursework, during the open registration period, by completing the online form found here: Graduate Course Registration Form.

  • As a non-matriculated student, you may register for four courses before you are required to matriculate into a program of study.
  • Athletic Graduate Assistants are permitted to take only two classes for free, rather than the usual three courses per semester as a non-matriculant.
  • Research Assistants must be matriculated in order to receive scholarship tuition benefits.
  • Non-matriculated students will not be assigned an advisor.  This option is recommended for self-directed individuals only.
