Auditing a course that does not earn credit and does not count against your GPA.
A student can audit a course with the explicit permission of the instructor teaching the course. The instructor may deny the auditing of an individual course. Tuition and fees are the same whether the student is taking the course for credit or for an audit. The AU symbol will be assigned as a grade for audited courses. Courses taken on an audit grading basis do not earn credit, nor is an AU grade used in the GPA calculation.
How to audit a class
To audit a class, the student must:
- Complete an Enrollment Adjustment Form; mark off "auditing a course" under the professor's name.
- Obtain the instructor’s approval/signature to audit the course on the form; email approval specifying permission to audit will be accepted from instructors FIU mail.
- Submit the form to OneStop by following instructions at the bottom of the enrollment adjustment form.
This can be done through the end of the add/drop period.
Refer to the Academic Calendar for specific dates and deadlines. Classes registered on an audit grading basis cannot be reverted to the original grading basis after the add/drop period.
