Non-degree student requirements

Applicants who wish to take one or more Memorial University undergraduate courses without intending to complete a credential program (degree, diploma or certificate) at Memorial, may be considered for admission under the category of non-degree student. This category is available to Canadian citizens and permanent residents aged 21 or older. Former Memorial students must be in clear academic standing to be considered.

Non-degree students will be subject to the same academic and non-academic regulations as all undergraduate students at Memorial, but will be assigned the last available registration slot. Registration eligibility is subject to course availability and completion of course pre-requisites. You are strongly encouraged to speak with the academic unit offering the course(s) of interest to verify registration eligibility, prior to submitting your application.

Applicants will be requested to provide information on their academic history on the application for admission, but academic documents will not be required. A proof of age document (such as a copy of a passport, birth certificate or driver’s licence) will need to be uploaded to the admissions portal or submitted to admiss.docs@mun.ca.

Non-degree students are not reviewed for general admission or transfer credit, and will be required to submit a new application for admission if they wish to complete a credential program at a later point in time.

If your admission to Memorial is contingent on a third party for funding, employment or other purposes, you are strongly recommended to ensure that the non-degree student category is acceptable to that third party before applying.
