Individual Courses at Villanova

The College of Professional Studies welcomes students interested in taking individual courses, but not enrolling in a degree program. These students typically enroll for professional enrichment or to complete prerequisite courses for another program. The application process to enroll in individual courses is competitive and dependent upon course availability. Students must have completed at least 15 college credits and demonstrated strong academic performance.

Students accepted to enroll in individual courses are only eligible to enroll in a maximum of 9 credits and are admitted for one academic semester.

During the University’s Summer Sessions, anyone who has earned a high school diploma (including individuals who are enrolled in another university) may apply to enroll in a course as a visiting student. Students must submit a copy of their high school or college transcript. High school applicants must have at least a 3.0 GPA.
