Non-Degree Seeking Student Admissions

Embrace Lifelong Learning

You don’t have to pursue a degree to take classes at the University of Wyoming. Non-degree enrollment gives you the opportunity to explore academic interests, develop new skills or continue your education without committing to a degree program. Of course, if plans change, UW allows students to switch to degree status at any time, ensuring a seamless transition as you continue to pursue your academic goals.
