A matriculated student is one who has been accepted into the College and is enrolled in a credit-bearing degree, certificate, or microcredential program. A matriculated student who discontinues enrollment for an academic year is considered to have broken their matriculation and must re-apply to the College. All students who break their matriculation at the College must abide by the current degree, certificate, and microcredential program requirements, as well as all current College policies and procedures. A matriculated student may request an academic program change through Records and Registration using the Curriculum Change Request Form.

A non-matriculated student is enrolled in college classes but has not been formally admitted to a credit-bearing degree, certificate, or microcredential program.
