Auditing a Course

When you Audit an Outlier course, it simply means you’re taking the course without the expectation of earning credits or impacting your college transcript.

You will not receive a grade, a transcript, or college credit, and will not be participating in quizzes or exams.

Ideal Audit students are...

  • High school students who are looking to add sparkle to their college applications, or learn more about a subject, but wish to avoid the burden of impacting their permanent records.
  • Lifelong learners who want to take a serious course but aren’t interested in receiving grades or college credits.
