Registrar Policies & Procedures

Auditing

(The following was adapted from the Academic Bulletin)

No student shall be permitted to audit a course that is examined on the Pennsylvania Bar Examination. Subject to the approval of the Academic Status Committee, a student may be permitted to audit any other course for good cause. All courses that are permitted to be audited are subject to the normal attendance requirements.

Auditing a course during any semester will not reduce a student’s residency credit requirement.

In addition, no student shall be permitted to audit more than one (1) course per semester. If, by auditing a course, a student exceeds more than three (3) credits above the maximum permitted to be taken during the academic year, permission must be received from the Academic Status Committee and tuition must be paid for those credits. (Part-Time Day Division students are subject to tuition on a credit basis for any courses audited.) All requests to the Academic Status Committee must be in writing (e-mail or fax requests are unacceptable) and are to be delivered to the Office of the Associate Dean.
