Auditing a course
Students who wish to obtain knowledge from a course but do not need or want the credit for graduation may enroll in the course(s) as auditors/hearers.
- Hearers receive no credit toward a degree, and an H grade appears on the transcript.
- Students pay standard fees for the course(s).
- Students may not change their registration status, (hearer vs. credit) after the expiration of two weeks following the first day of classes in regular session or the equivalent thereof in a shorter session.
- Contact the Office of the University Registrar-Registration, 573-882-7881, for deadlines for each semester.
- Students must obtain dean’s approval from the academic advising unit on a late registration change form prior to processing it in the Office of the University Registrar-Registration, 130 Jesse Hall.
- Students who fail to meet class requirements may be dropped from the course by their academic advising unit upon request of their instructor and with the dean’s stamp.
- Normally, a hearer will attend the course on a regular basis; either the department or an individual instructor will stipulate the requirements for enrollment in a course as a hearer.
