Any person who has graduated from high school or earned the GED equivalent or any person who has attended another college or university may apply to BGSU as a Guest Student. The person who makes such an application is not required to submit a high school transcript or ACT (American College Test) results. Any course work taken as a Guest Student will be applicable to a degree program once the student is formally admitted to BGSU. Guest students in this category may register for undergraduate classes only (course numbers 0-499). Guest students are not eligible for financial aid.

A Guest Student is limited to taking 16 hours of credit without formal admission to BGSU. The 16-hour limit shall include all semester hours attempted by the student. If a Guest Student fails a class, those hours also will be included. Once the 16-hour limit has been reached, the student must be formally admitted through the Office of Admissions, 110 McFall Center, 419-372-2478. Guest student enrollment is not to be used by students who have been denied or who have refused formal admission to BGSU. A Guest Student's registration will be withdrawn if it is discovered that s/he has been denied formal admission. If, after the 16-credit-hour limit has been reached, a student cannot be admitted, permission is required from the Office of Admissions to continue enrollment as a Guest Student.

A Guest Student is required to submit the Guest application each term s/he wishes to take classes. The application can be obtained in the Office of Registration & Records, 110 Administration Building, 419-372-7966.
