Enrolling and Registering as a Visitor(Auditor)
A person may be permitted to enroll in credit courses as a visitor on
a non-credit basis. Credit may not be earned in courses taken as a
visitor except by reenrollment for credit in the course and completion
of the course with a satisfactory grade. To be enrolled as a visitor, a
student must enroll in the same manner as for credit courses and pay the
same tuition and fees as for a credit registration.
Choice of enrollment in a credit course as a visitor on a non-credit basis must be
made by the fifth day of the term of instruction and may not be subsequently changed.
Arrange visitor enrollment in the Registrar's Office in 150 Administration Building or by calling the office at (517) 355-3300.
Students enrolled as visitors are expected to attend classes regularly.
Those so enrolled who do not attend regularly may be dropped from the
classes at the request of the instructor.

Visitor
Students may enroll in a course as a Visitor instead of taking the course for academic credit. Visitors may attend and participate in the course, but they do not earn credit for completing the course. To earn credit, a student must enroll in the course for credit and complete the course successfully.
To enroll as a visitor, students must:
• Enroll in the course through the student information system.
• Contact the Spartan One Stop by the Open Add End Date to request visitor status.
Students cannot change to or from visitor status after the Open Add End Date.
Visitors are expected to attend class regularly. A visitor who does not attend regularly may be dropped from the course at the instructor’s request.
Courses taken as a visitor count toward a student’s enrolled credits for tuition, fees, and enrollment status.
A V (visitor) notation is recorded on the student’s transcript for courses taken as a visitor.
