What is a Non-Matriculated Application?
A non-matriculating student (can also be referred to a non-degree seeking student or visiting student) is a student who wishes to take courses at Rowan University during the fall and/or spring semesters, but is NOT pursuing or seeking a degree at Rowan University. As an International non-matriculated (non-degree) undergraduate student, you must register for a full-time course load (12 credits minimum and 15 credits maximum) to maintain your F-1 or J-1 status. International graduate non-matriculated students must register for a minimum of 9 credits.
Non-Matriculated Application allows you to select and take courses from across the University in a wide range of subjects/courses to meet your individual goals.
If you wish to become a matriculated student and pursue courses toward a degree, visit the International Admissions Office homepage for more information.
Who is an “international” applicant?
You are an international applicant if a visa is required to reside and study in the United States. Rowan considers international students/applicants who entered or plan to enter the United States on a non-immigrant visa (i.e., F-1 and J-1,) and maintain non-immigrant status throughout their study at Rowan University. This includes those who have submitted residency application documents to USCIS, but have not received formal approval verifying that you have become a permanent resident of the United States of America.
You are considered a domestic student/applicant if you are a United States citizen, a permanent resident of the United States (“Green Card” holder), an asylee, a refugee, an undocumented student, or a DACA student.
