REGULATIONS

An auditor does not participate in class discussions and does not take quizzes or final exams. An applicant whose age approximates that of Wellesley students is ineligible to audit unless the B.A. degree has been received. Exceptions are made for young foreign students who may be living in this country for a year.

Auditors are limited to one course per semester for which no college credit is given. Classes are available to auditors only through official registration. A list of classes available to auditors is posted outside the Registrar's Office and at the Wellesley Public Libraries approximately two to three weeks before the beginning of classes. If a class is filled to capacity, the auditor will be asked to select another class.

A short time before the dates for auditor registration, this information and an updated list of courses available for auditing will be posted on the Web at:
