Non-ASU students

Steps to Participate in a Global Education Program for Non-ASU Students

1. Apply for admission to ASU as a nondegree or visiting university student. In order to be eligible for participation, all non-ASU students must first be accepted to ASU. ASU alumni and ASU students who will be graduating before their program begins are also required to re-apply as a nondegree student.  
   1. Important Notes: 
   • Students who have previously graduated or will be graduating with a Bachelors degree before their desired program begins, must apply as a nondegree graduate student. 
   • Students who are currently enrolled in an undergraduate degree at another university and will not have completed a Bachelors degree before their desired program begins, must apply as a visiting university student.
   • Students who are currently enrolled in high school, or are a high school graduate and are not currently enrolled at another university, must apply as a nondegree student.
   • Nondegree students are not eligible for financial aid through ASU. Visiting university students should inquire with their home institution about the portability of their financial aid package.
