Also, the Master of Science in Occupational Therapy and Doctor of Philosophy in Leadership courses are not apart of the non-degree option.
A student must submit a completed registration form, with signed approval by the admissions coordinator or Dean, to the Graduate and Continuing Studies Division. Forms without the required signatures will not be accepted for registration.
