Project 65

This is an archived copy of the 2018-19 catalog. To access the most recent version of the catalog, please visit http://bulletin.ndsu.edu.

People aged 65 or over may audit one course per semester free of tuition and related fees, with the exception of a one-time $35 application fee. Courses not eligible for Project 65 include those not covered by the tuition cap.  Contact Registration and Records for questions regarding course eligibility. 

Project 65 students are encouraged to purchase the textbooks for their courses. The transcript of a student auditing a course will show a grade of 'Audit' for the course, which will not count as credit toward a degree. By definition, an auditor may attend class only as a listener. Students wishing to earn credit toward a degree must be admitted and pay all tuition and fees and complete all assignments and tests.

Students are responsible for course selection and need to obtain a class permit from the academic department of the course the student would like to enroll in.  The instructor/department staff will issue the permit with the audit authorization. Students should bring the permit and identify themselves as participants in the Project 65 program at the time of registration to the Office of Registration and Records, 110 Ceres (701-231-7981).
