Can I apply to Cayuga Community College as a non-degree student?

I'm thinking about taking a few classes at Cayuga Community College without officially enrolling in a degree program. Does anyone know what the application process looks like for non-degree students?

Yes, it is possible to take classes at Cayuga Community College as a non-degree seeking student. This is typically referred to as 'special student status'.

As a special student, you can take classes for credit but you're not enrolled in a degree program. This is a great option if you're interested in expanding your knowledge in a certain area without the commitment of a full degree program.

The process for application generally involves completing the school's application form, similar to degree-seeking students, but might have slightly different requirements since you're not pursuing a degree. Often, there may not be an application fee for non-degree students.

Once your application is accepted, you'll be able to register for classes. Some classes might have prerequisites or restrictions, and those will apply to you as well, so you'll want to check the course catalog carefully.

However, each school has its own policies and procedures, so I highly recommend reaching out to Cayuga Community College's admissions office to get the most accurate and specific information. They can guide you through the process and answer any questions you have about becoming a non-degree seeking student there.
