Visiting Students

Visiting students are those students enrolled in a degree program at another institution who wish to take a class or classes at Sacred Heart.

Here’s what you’ll need to do:

• Confirm with your college that they will accept Sacred Heart University credits
• Verify that you have completed all SHU prerequisites for courses you wish to take at SHU
• View our full course listing and availability
• Complete the Visiting Student Application (if you have never taken a course at SHU and have not previously applied)
• Once you submit the form you will receive a confirmation email from SHU allowing you to upload an unofficial transcript from your current college (required) in your SHU Portal
• Complete and submit the Visiting Student Registration Form in your SHU Portal
• After you submit your application materials and completed registration form, you will be registered for your course(s), and you will receive a confirmation email that will include your ID number and instructions on how to set up your SHU account
• Review information on Part-Time Tuition & Fees to understand the cost of your courses
