Guidelines for Auditing a Class:

1. Approved retirees and spouses are allowed to audit courses without a tuition charge.
2. A retiree auditing a course is not required to complete written assignments or take examinations. Extent and type of participation in the class is at the discretion of the professor.
3. A retiree auditing a course may not replace a student taking the course for credit.
4. Auditing is not permitted in physical education activity courses, theatre or dance technique courses, music performance courses, education courses numbered 3000 or above, courses offered in partnership with external organizations, or other courses so indicated in the course schedule at the discretion of the professor and with the approval of the department chair/assistant dean.
5. If a UNW retiree has never been a UNW student, they will need to complete a special student (abbreviated application in Admissions) as this is the way such a person gets identified in Banner as a “student” in order for registration to take place. In the past, current employees who have audited a class, did not need to pay an application fee or an enrollment deposition, which would be the case with retirees as well.

Steps for Enrollment:

1. Contact the Admissions Office at 651-631-5111 or admissions@unwsp.edu. They will send you a short application form and walk you through the process.
2. Admissions will do a little data entry and then connect you with the Registrar’s office to help you sign up for their class.
