To be considered for admission to DUS, transient students must be in good academic standing at their home institution and be eligible to return to that institution. Transient students should work closely with their home institutions to assure that the course work they take at Vanderbilt is appropriate for transfer back to their degree programs. To apply for admission to the Division of Unclassified Studies as a transient student, the following documents must be submitted:

Application Form (PDF)

Application Fee ($50.00)

Official college transcripts from all institutions attended (PDF)

While enrolled as a DUS student, the following standards must be maintained:

All courses taken for the purpose of transferring credit back to the home institution should be approved for transferability by that institution.

All tuition and fees must be paid in full at the time of registration.

Students who have an outstanding balance from a prior term must pay that balance in full along with the current term's tuition before they will be permitted to register.
