Most faculty permit auditing in their courses. However, if a course is only set up for an A-F and/or S-N grading basis, then it cannot be audited.
As an auditor, you must enroll in, pay tuition and fees for, and attend classes but do not complete assignments or take examinations. The University does not allow anyone not registered for a course to sit in on it. You receive no credit for the class, but the class will be placed on your transcript with the symbol “V” (visitor) to indicate your special registration status. The audited course will not count toward fulfilling any requirements for your graduate program.
Audited courses do NOT count toward your full course of study requirement as an international student. You may only audit a class if you are already enrolled in your required minimum number of credits.
Audit credits do count in how you will be charged tuition. If you register for more than 14 credits, even if they are audit credits, you will pay for each credit individually over 14.
