International Students

International students should consult the International Students and Scholars Center before registering for the "Graduate Examination."

Access to Campus Resources

Students who enroll in the "Graduate Examination" will not have a valid student ID and thus will not have regular access to the Student Health Center, MU Libraries, the Student Recreation Center or campus computing centers. If a student needs to use any of these services, registration in a one-, two- or three-hour course (including graduate research courses) is required.

Extra fees apply for access to the Student Health Center and the Student Recreation Center. Please consult the Cashier's Office for these optional fees.
