Audit NMC Undergraduate Courses

The Department of Near and Middle Eastern Civilizations allows students to audit courses under certain conditions:

  • Auditors must have the permission of the instructor.
  • The classroom size can accommodate auditing students.
  • The Department limits the consecutive number of courses audited to two.

Students registered in the University of Toronto, senior citizens (60 years old as of January 1 of the current year), and employees of the University will not be charged an audit fee. All other auditors will be charged 40% of the tuition fee per course.

Auditors are not evaluated, do not submit assignments, do not participate in online discussions, and do not write tests and examinations. The Department of Near and Middle Eastern Civilizations does not issue a Certificate of Attendance and therefore does not keep a record of attendance.

In all cases, students registered in the University will have priority over students who are not registered.

An auditor will not receive evaluations of participation, and will not be allowed to submit assignments or write examinations and tests, except by special and express permission.
