Non-Degree Students

Admissions


The University of Wyoming is proud to offer students who wish to take courses without an official degree status. This is a perfect opportunity for students who wish to pursue higher education courses without the current intention of obtaining a degree and flexibility to discover what interests them without advising appointments. If your plans ever change while you are taking coursework, you can always change your status at a later time.

 

A couple of things to keep in mind with this admission status:

  • The non-degree admission status is a special status that is not available to international students.
  • This status is not available to students who have a suspension status at UW or any other college or university.
  • Non-degree students CANNOT receive financial aid or UW scholarships

 

Select the student type that best suits you:


Non-Degree Undergraduate Students

Prospective undergraduate and graduate students may elect to enroll in UW undergraduate courses as "non-degree" students.

Next STEPS TO ENROLLMENT


1. Create a Username & Log into WyoWeb
The WyoWeb portal will contain all of your main information. First, you will need your username and password. Follow these step-by-step instructions on creating your account.


2. Submit the MMR Form
(Laramie Campus students only)
All students taking classes on the Laramie campus must turn in their proof of the Measles, Mumps, and Rubella vaccinations prior to course registration. You will not be able to register for semester classes if you have not met this requirement. For further information about the MMR vaccination requirement, please contact Student Health Service.


3. Get Advised

Non-degree Undergraduate students must connect with the Advising, Career, and Exploratory Studies Center for course registration at 307-766-2398. In addition, non-degree students can take a maximum of 7 credit hours per semester and may only transfer up to 12 credit hours to a degree-seeking program from this status.

Non-degree Graduate students are not required to meet with an advisor in order to register, however, it is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED that you discuss courses with your anticipated graduate program in advance. Not all coursework will be applied toward a graduate degree.


4. Register for Classes

You will need to create your WyoWeb account (wyoweb.uwyo.edu) for course registration.


5. Check your UW Email

Once your account is created and you are registered for courses you will have access to your UW e-mail account. You should check your UW e-mail account and your WyoWeb account frequently for important updates.


6. Financial Aid

As a non-degree student you are not eligible for financial aid. If your student status changes to degree-seeking, you may apply for financial aid at that time.
