You may register part-time for classes at the University of Rochester without applying to a certificate or degree program. This is considered a non-matriculated status. You may take any course for which you have met the pre-requisites or requirements of the course. See the current tuition and fee schedule for tuition costs.
If you choose to apply for admission to a certificate or degree program, these courses are included on your official transcript and may be considered for a future program of study:
- Certificate programs – up to 3 credit hours
- Master’s or PhD degree programs – up to 12 credit hours
We welcome you to the University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry. If you have questions or need additional assistance with your course registration, please contact the Registrar's Office.

Registration
Open registration periods for non-matriculated students are listed in the academic calendar.
Non-matriculated students wishing to enroll must complete a Non-matriculated Student Application Form and submit it to the Registrar's Office. Registration will be accepted after the registration close date with pre-payment of a $200 late registration fee to the Bursar's Office. Proof of late fee payment must be submitted with your registration forms.
Once our office staff have created your student account, you will be asked to log into UR Student to verify your information and complete a financial agreement. You will then be able to register for courses. You will also use UR Student to check the status of your registration request, check your schedule, pay your tuition, and view your grades. After you have registered for courses, you will use Blackboard to gain access to your specific course information.
Adding/Dropping Courses after you have Registered
If you change your mind and no longer wish to take the course(s) in which you are enrolled, you must submit an add/drop form. Courses dropped prior to the start of the semester will result in no tuition charges. However, if you remain enrolled after the start of the semester, your refund for the course will be based on the date you submit the add/drop form to the Registrar's Office. Please note that you may be financially responsible for all or part of the tuition based upon the date you drop or withdraw from the course.
