Undergraduate Cross Enrollment gives currently enrolled, degree-seeking students at any of the University of Missouri (UM) Schools, the opportunity to take a class at another UM school.  Cross Enrollment gives student more flexibility with their course selection.  If a course is full at S&T, a student might be able to enroll in the same course on another campus.   Flexibility with course selection, no application fees, and automated transfer of credits will help students stay on target to graduate on time.  Financial aid recipients may also receive some benefits by enrolling at another UM campus vs. a non-UM campus.  
 
Students do not need to submit an application and no application fees apply.  
 
Undergraduate students will register for classes at the host campus and will need to meet all prerequisites at that campus.  In order to help streamline the process, it is highly suggested that advisors/instructors accept unofficial transcripts from the other University of Missouri Schools to help facilitate the process for student enrollment.  Students are asked to supply the host campus with a copy of the unofficial transcripts or similar documentation. 
 
Undergraduate students are asked to check with their home campus advisor to ensure that the course will transfer.  Our students should use the Transfer Equivalency Database at http://registrar.mst.edu/transfercredit/ to ensure their class will transfer and fulfill their degree requirements.  
 
For questions about the undergraduate cross campus enrollment process, please contact Julie Parker in the the S&T Registrar’s Office.  You can reach Julie at 573-341-6588 or juliep@mst.edu
 
For questions about the visiting graduate student program, please contact Graduate Education at 573-341-4141 or grad@mst.edu.

 Course sharing and cross enrollment: Requesting Accommodations as a Visiting Student with a Disability

 

Students with disabilities wishing to utilize their home institution’s approved accommodations as a visiting student at a host institution should reach out to their host institution’s disability services office.  Students should follow the initial steps outlined by each institution to request an accommodation plan and should then provide a copy of their home institution’s accommodation letter in lieu of submitting third-party documentation. 

Students will meet with a representative from their host institution to learn more about differences between campus procedures related to accommodation implementation and to obtain their accommodation letter.  

In the event that a student chooses to transfer to the host institution, additional documentation and meetings may be required.
