Non-Degree/Previously Attended App State
If you have attended AppState before and are interested in taking a class for Summer without the intent to pursue a degree program, you are a non-degree student.
You might be interested in
- taking a class for your own professional development, or
- returning to your parent institution where you are pursuing a degree program and want the AppState class to satisfy a degree requirement there, or
- seeking credentialing, continuing education credits, or gaining competencies essential in preparing for professional/entrance exams.
