Matriculation

Undergraduate Students

Matriculation is the formal act of registering to study for a specific degree offered by the university.  Matriculation is, therefore, not automatic.  A student must request matriculation by seeking admission to a specific university degree program.  Formal acceptance into a degree program shall constitute the granting of matriculation.

Students seeking credit to be transferred to another institution, or wishing simply to audit courses or to take them without working toward a degree, need not matriculate.  Nonmatriculated students must register to take their chosen courses, however, and will be allowed to enroll in courses only as space permits.  It is the student's responsibility to seek matriculation should he or she later decide to pursue a University of New Haven degree.
