Non-Degree Seeking Student

Do you want to acquire training or skills for your job? Do you want to transfer credits to another institution? Maybe you just want to have fun or try something new. Whatever your reason, we are happy to have you join us at LC State. Applying is easy, and it’s free!

Apply for Admission

Students who do not wish to apply as a degree-seeking student, or who do not qualify for degree-seeking status, may apply as a non-degree seeking student. Please keep in mind:

  1. Students may register for no more than eleven (11) credits each term and may complete a maximum of thirty (30) credits. Students may petition the Assistant Dean of Enrollment Services to exceed the semester credit limit or the maximum credit limit.
  2. Students are not eligible for financial aid, veteran benefits, or graduation. 
  3. Idaho residents aged sixty (60) or older may take classes for a reduced fee (Policy 3.130)
  4. If a non-degree seeking student wishes to take a course that requires a pre-requisite, LC State will require an unofficial transcript verifying the pre-requisite has been met or permission from the course instructor before course registration will be allowed.
  5. High school students who wish to enroll as a non-degree seeking student must work directly with the college’s Early College Programs Office.

If you are taking courses to fulfill requirements at another school, please check to see if the course you wish to take has a pre-requisite. If it does and that pre-requisite is completed at your current school, LC State will need an unofficial transcript to allow you to register for the course.

The online application takes about 10-15 minutes to complete and is free to submit! You can apply online or via paper application. The online application is preferred so you may track your admission file.  

When you begin your application, you will first choose the Non-Degree Seeking Application. After making your selection, you will need to create an account to proceed with the online application. With your account, you can log in at any time to complete the application, upload admission documents, and check your application status.

*If you are a current dual credit student please contact visit the Early College Programs page to submit your application. If you are an international student please visit the International Admissions page to submit your application. 

If a non-degree seeking student wishes to take a course that requires a pre-requisite, LC State will require an unofficial transcript verifying the pre-requisite has been met or permission from the course instructor before course registration will be allowed.
