Non-Degree Programs
The Graduate School enrolls a number of students from other institutions who apply to follow specific academic objectives including enrolling in Princeton graduate courses, conducting advanced research as part of a collaborative research relationship, consulting with our faculty or using special research collections, or some combination of these.
Typically, non-degree students are enrolled for one term or, at most one academic year. There are several types of non-degree students, depending on the student’s proposed plan of study, and a number of inter-institutional programs through which students can come to Princeton.
