FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS 

I'm not a Clemson student. Can I take a art summer class? Yes!

Students from other institutions who wish to enroll in courses during the summer only are considered transient students. Students from other institutions may only enroll during the Fall or Spring semester if they follow transfer procedures. 

Accepted transient students who apply early will be mailed information on registration and advance payment. Late applicants must sign up for courses and pay during the late enrollment period. 

The Transient Student information and application are available online.  

GRADUATE TRANSIENT STUDENTS

If you are enrolled in a degree program at another institution and wish to take courses to transfer to that institution, you may enroll at Clemson upon receipt of the Certification of Transient Graduate Admission. This form must be received six weeks before the beginning of classes. Please see the information regarding Clemson's registration procedures
