Audit Policy (BP 6.31)

The SMCCCD allows auditing of courses with the exception of courses in programs that require special preparation and/or programs where admission is on a limited basis. Enrollment as an auditor is a manual process and must be completed at the Office of Admissions and Records within the week after the close of the late registration period.

A student may audit a course only under the following circumstances.

• The student must have previously enrolled for credit for the maximum number of times allowed for a particular course.
• The instructor of record of the course must approve the enrollment as an auditor. An instructor is not required to take auditors.
• The student must be in academic good standing to audit any course.
• If the course is a variable unit class, the student must enroll as an auditor for the maximum number of units available.
• The student must enroll as an auditor by completing and submitting the Audit Course Request immediately following the published late registration period and pay the auditing fee.
