Non-Degree-Seeking Students

Gardner-Webb University admits a limited number of non-degree-seeking students. They include:

Persons who wish to take only private music lessons. Such applicants are admitted if instructors in the School of Performing and Visual Arts are able to schedule lessons for them.
Persons 21 years of age or older who are not high school graduates or degree candidates but wish to take classwork. Such persons are accepted on the basis of maturity and background sufficient to do the classwork desired.
College graduates who are interested in further study.
High school students who wish to take classwork on the Gardner-Webb campus prior to and during their senior year.
High school students who wish to enter Gardner-Webb at the end of their junior year may submit an application for consideration for early admission. Students must obtain approval from their local school authority (i.e., school board, principal, etc.) to count their freshman year requirements at Gardner-Webb toward their graduation requirements from high school.

Credit awarded to non-degree-seeking students will be recorded on a University transcript.
