In order to enroll in an on-campus or distance education course as a Non-Degree Studies (NDS) Student:

• Students must have a high school diploma or GED (high school students with exceptional academic records can enroll through the Academic Enrichment (AEO) program.)
  
  
• Students must have graduated from high school at least a year prior to taking classes as an NDS student; this restriction does not apply to Summer Sessions or Advance Enrichment Opportunities (AEO.)
  
  
• Students must not have been suspended from any college or university (including NC State) within the last three years. For more information on suspended students click here.
  
  
• Students cannot be currently classified as an NC State University degree student.
