Deadlines:

Applications are accepted after the advertised deadline on a space availability basis.

Please note: This status is intended only if you would like to take graduate level courses, not undergraduate level courses.

Requirements:

In order to be considered for admission to Hunter College as a graduate non-degree student, you must hold the equivalent of a US bachelor's degree.

Application Fee:

A $125 application fee is required of all applicants.  It will be collected at the time of your first registration. You will be responsible for paying the $125 processing fee even if you register and drop your courses prior to the first day of classes.  Please do not send the fee with your application.  Students currently enrolled on the graduate level at another CUNY College will have their application fee waived if proof of enrollment for the appropriate semester is shown.

Review and Notification:

If your application and the supporting proof of BA degree conferral are acceptable, registration materials will be sent with further instructions about two weeks prior to the start of registration. A Schedule of Classes will be available on the Registrar’s web site and will list all graduate courses offered each semester.   

If you are a US Permanent Resident, you must present your Alien Registration Card to the Admissions Office along with your application.
