Non-Degree Seeking Student

As a non-degree seeking student, you do not need to fill out an application for admissions.  Follow these steps to register as a visiting student.

If you are currently admitted at another Minnesota State College or University, you can register by logging in to web registration at your home campus:

  • Under Courses and Registration, select Find a Course.

  • Click on the Advanced Search tab to find the Minnesota West course and then add it to your course cart.

  • Register as you would for any course at your home institution.

If you are not a student at another Minnesota State institution and wish to take classes but do not wish to seek a degree, diploma or certificate from Minnesota West, you should follow these instructions.

  • View class schedules.  Select the courses for which you want to register. Please note that some courses may have pre-requisites or placement requirements.

  • You will need to set up an account in e-Services Student Account in order to register. 

  • Go to e-Services Student Account  At the end of the Login ID line, locate Need an ID?

  • Select Sign up Now and follow instructions to create an account.

  • After creating your account, you will be logged in. Helpful instructions for how to Register for Classes is available at How Do I?

Notes:
If you attempt to register for a course that requires a placement test score or a prerequisite course and your registration fails, please complete the e-form to provide your pre-requisite information. Please note, you will need to include a digital copy of your unofficial transcript for verification purposes. For questions, please contact registrar@mnwest.edu for assistance.

Non-degree seeking students are not eligible for financial aid.
