Non-Degree Seeking Students
Non-Degree Students
Students may start taking graduate courses in the Mathematics Education department as non-degree seeking students and apply up to 12 credits toward their Master's once they are admitted. Many students start as non-degree seeking students while they complete the formal admissions process or establish the credentials required for formal admission.
Limited Space and Non-Degree Seeking Students
Because non-degree seeking students register last, you may experience problems getting
into your education courses, particularly your first semester. It is state policy
that your access to courses is on a seat available basis. As a result, University
policy states that fully admitted graduate students register first. Second to register
are fully admitted undergraduate students based on earned hours. Last to register
are non-degree seeking students on a first-come, first-served basis based on the alphabetical
appointment times for registration. You can avoid this problem by applying to one
of our master鈥檚 degree programs or offered Graduate Certificate programs which will
allow you to register earlier in the registration process.
If a course is closed when you attempt to register, you will need to adjust your plans.
The education courses have enrollment limits that are planned based on the content
and assignments in each course. Even if you are told otherwise, do not come to the
first class meeting of a course that is closed in the hope that you will be admitted. The
education faculty do not admit students to classes.
The only way to enter courses is through the registration and drop/add system. You
can check Student Self-Service (formerly Student OASIS) frequently during the registration
and the drop/add period during the first week of classes to register for an open seat
should someone drop or be removed due to lack of prerequisites.
Students seeking only courses to meet certification requirements directly from the
State of Florida, but who do not want a degree from 新澳门六合彩内幕信息in education, have typically
used this admissions status.
