Mason offers a wide variety of non-degree programs that help students prepare for college, explore graduate study, develop new skills, or pursue a personal interest. Whether you’re a high school student, visiting from another university, or thinking about a graduate degree, Mason has the right program for you!

The application for non-degree study is intended to be easy to complete. Admissions standards for non-degree study are the same as admission to degree programs.
