Proof of Florida residency for determining your eligibility to pay in-state tuition rates may be submitted directly to the Registration & Records Office on any USF campus you are planning to attend. Please be advised that Financial Aid is not available for Non-Degree seeking students.

All students, regardless of age, must complete a mandatory medical history form available from USF Student Health Services. All students born after 1956 must also present documented proof of immunity to measles (Rubeola) and Rubella (German measles). Foreign nationals must comply with the State University System's Insurance requirements by providing proof of insurance to the USF Student Health Services Office prior to registration.

Please be advised a maximum of 14 credit hours may be applied to an Undergraduate program, or 12 credit hours to a Graduate program.

Because of demand for some courses, Non-Degree students may only register during the first week of the semester in College of Business Administration courses and only with college/departmental permission.

You cannot apply Non-Degree seeking if you have previously been denied USF undergraduate admission or if you previously attended USF but have not been awarded your degree. Do not apply as a Non-Degree-seeker unless you are in good academic standing with your last institution or if you are already admitted to USF as a degree-seeker and have not earned a degree from another institution.

IMPORTANT: Non-Degree applicants are bound by the University’s regulations concerning completeness and accuracy of application information. Making false or fraudulent statements regarding prior conduct may result in disciplinary action, invalidation of credits earned and registration eligibility rescinded. Should any information change prior to registration, Non-Degree applicants must notify the USF Office of the Registrar. The University may refuse admission to a student whose record shows previous misconduct not in the best interest of the University community.
