Transfer students interested in taking courses at UMD without pursuing a degree must apply for admission as non-degree seeking students using the transfer application.
If you have not completed a bachelor’s degree, you must submit a completed application, official transcripts from all colleges and universities previously attended and the application fee.
If you have already completed a bachelor's degree, transcripts are not required. However, since you may need to demonstrate that you have met prerequisites, we recommend having one available to provide.
If you wish to enroll for one semester as a visiting student and transfer the coursework back to your home institution, you must submit the transfer application, official transcripts, the application fee and a letter of permission from an academic advisor or dean at your home institution.
On the application, please be sure to indicate that you are applying as a "non-degree seeking" student. You will be reviewed under the same standards for admission as degree-seeking students and we cannot guarantee that non-degree seeking applications received after the application deadline will be reviewed.
Non-degree seeking students wishing to take a single course during a summer or winter term must complete the application available on the Office of Extended Studies website.
