This category includes anyone who has at least a high school diploma or equivalent and wishes to enroll in undergraduate courses for credit, but is not interested in pursuing a baccalaureate degree at SIUE.
The only document required is the completed application. However, you may be required to present evidence of prerequisite completion at the time of registration.
Visiting students are not eligible to receive financial aid. However, if a visiting student is currently pursuing a degree at another post-secondary institution, the student may be eligible for VA benefits or student employment. Students wishing to apply for student employment or to receive VA benefits need to submit appropriate documentation confirming their degree-seeking status at a parent institution.
Students in visiting status may not accumulate more than 30 semester hours at the University. If a student has accumulated 30 semester hours of credit and wishes to continue enrollment at SIUE, he/she must apply to the University as a degree-seeking student and satisfy appropriate criteria. Continued enrollment will not be permitted until the student satisfies admission criteria or appeals to the Director of Admissions.
Applicants previously denied admission in degree-seeking categories are not admissible as visiting students.
