Other Details

*Home campus enrollment requirements varies.

  • M State, MSUM, and NDSU students must register for at least 1 class.
  • Concordia students are required to be full-time students. 

**Requests for exceptions are reviewed on an individual basis.

  • Partner campuses set their own criteria for exceptions. 
  • If you have extenuating circumstances, submit BOTH the Course Exchange Registration Form and the Course Exchange Appeal Form for review.

***Science classes in ND and MN are numbered differently. 

  • NDSU lists a science class as  2 classes -> a 3 credit lecture  + 1 credit lab = 4 credits.
  • Concordia, M State, and MSUM list a science class as 1 class -> a 4 credit class that includes lecture & lab. 
  • Bottom line - when registering for a science class, make sure you know the difference so you get registered for the lab class.
