Types of Admission
Each admitted student is classified under one of the following categories. Not all schools admit under all categories.

Regular Students: students admitted with permission to work toward degrees or diplomas. A regular student admitted with a condition must resolve it within the time limit set by the Office of Admissions to maintain regular student status.

Provisional Students: students admitted without meeting the full requirements for Regular status. While classified as provisional, students take a limited program of 12 to 13.5 credits and must consult with the dean each semester before registration to review their progress and receive approval of their proposed programs. Provisional students who demonstrate satisfactory performance after two semesters of full-time attendance may petition the dean to be reclassified as regular.

Transient Students: students who enroll only for certain courses to meet their particular needs at other institutions without pursuing a regular program leading to a degree or diploma at Yeshiva University. Applicants may be admitted as transient students with the permission of their home institution and the specific approval of the school of Yeshiva University to which they have applied. Opportunities for such study are limited. Normally, students in this category may enroll for not more than nine credits.

Visiting Students: students who register for a limited number of courses in a school of Yeshiva University while enrolled with regular or provisional status in another YU school. Students must have the permission of both schools to register as visiting.

All students, regardless of their status, must meet all standards and comply with all regulations and requirements.

College Courses for High School Students
Yeshiva University High School seniors with good records may take individual undergraduate courses for college credit at Yeshiva College or Sy Syms School of Business. These courses do not count toward undergraduate residency requirements. For information on availability of courses, contact the Office of the Registrar.

University Resources
Undergraduate students have many opportunities to benefit from Yeshiva University’s graduate and professional schools. These include academic programs such as funded summer internships at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine and joint degree programs with the Wurzweiler School of Social Work and the Cardozo School of Law.
