These changes are necessary to ensure 性视界传媒's Financial Aid and Scholarships Office is administering financial aid correctly in relationship to degree applicable coursework and eligible coursework for financial aid. This enrollment procedural change is required for all graduate level students.

Here is a quick summary for how the undergraduate course authorization form will work:

  1. Courses that are not part of the approved plan of study cannot be completed at the graduate level.
  2. Course levels:
    • 300 and 400 level courses that are approved for the plan of study will apply to the graduate career
    • 300 and 400 courses that are not approved for the plan of study cannot count as degree applicable work towards the graduate GPA or degree
    • 100 and 200 level courses cannot apply to the graduate career and cannot count as degree applicable work towards the graduate GPA or degree
  3. All courses regardless of level will be assessed the graduate rate of tuition.
For more information regarding how undergraduate courses can count towards graduate degrees, please refer to the policy in the .

The Office of Admissions, in coordination with 性视界传媒 Central, processes all non-degree applications which are commonly referred to as visiting students.  Visiting students apply to take classes as undergraduate or graduate students. The level of the students (undergraduate or graduate) determines the fees associated with the class and the type of credit that will be awarded.

Visiting student will have until the university census date of each semester to make a request to change their enrollment degree level status.  Changes requested after the university census date will not be approved.  Students who request a degree level change after the start of the term and prior to the university census date will be charged a $50 late registration fee.

In some situations, it is important that records or holds preventing certain actions be maintained in student records across the four campuses in the University of Missouri System.  For instance, if a student is sanctioned with University Dismissal, University Suspension, University Expulsion or other sanctions/agreements that extend beyond a given campus, a mechanism to enforce such agreements or sanctions is needed.  More information can be found in the .

A university/system-wide service indicator or hold may be placed within the student information system (e.g. PeopleSoft) that will enforce the policy.  These are placed and removed by authorized individuals on each campus and will automatically be added or removed from impacting students on all campuses.
