Resident / External Degrees

All of the degrees offered by SES / SEBC are available through either the residential program (on-campus) or through external studies. Students taking classes at the Miami, Florida Teaching Site are considered residential (on-campus).

Resident / External Non-Degree Credit

Non-Degree Credit status may be granted to students who do not meet the academic requirements for regular admission into a degree program but who desire academic credit or students who are qualified for a degree program, but do not desire to enter a degree program at this time. A Non-Degree Credit student taking courses for credit must pay full tuition for each course so taken. Such a student can take no more than three (3) courses for credit, at which time enrollment in a specific degree program must be completed including submission of a complete admission application in order to continue to take courses for credit. Credits earned under Non-Degree status are valid for six years before entering a degree program. Admission as a Non-Degree Credit student does not guarantee future admission into a degree program.

Student Portfolio Policy for Academic Degree Programs

Each academic program has major learning outcomes and degree students are required to submit portfolios that describe and document the fulfillment of each learning outcome as a requirement for graduation. Details of the portfolio are available in the student handbook. See Student Portfolio Downloads.
