I want to audit a class. What do I do?

To receive an 'Audit' grade, the student must follow these steps:

  1. Register for the course that you wish to audit, then
  2. Search "Create Request", then
  3. Choose 'STUDENT COURSE REGISTRATION: Request to Audit a Course', then
  4. Submit that framework 

Someone from the Registration and Records team will respond to your request. If you have any questions, please contact Records@aims.edu.

 

What does it cost to audit a class?

Students who audit a class must pay the regular tuition and fees for the class.

 

Does an audit figure into my enrollment status for Financial Aid or toward a degree?

Courses for which the AU grade is assigned will not count toward any certificate or degree program. The AU grade cannot be used to satisfy the following: a course prerequisite, in-residence requirements, financial aid benefits or veteran’s benefits. To receive credit for a course that was originally audited, the student must retake the course in a subsequent semester and satisfactorily complete the course.
