Non-Degree Student
A non-degree student takes only those graduate courses that meet his/her professional development or personal needs and does not pursue a degree. 

Individuals enrolled in a master’s program at another college or university, and who wish to take and transfer a York College course, should apply for non-degree admissions status.
