- How to Add and Submit a Payment (when there is no balance)
Non-Degree Students Only:
Students holding a bachelor’s degree from a recognized college or university may be allowed to register for graduate courses contingent upon their requisite background for the specific courses. In each case, permission must be obtained from the program director. No more than two courses can be taken as a non-degree candidate. THIS WILL BE STRICTLY ENFORCED. Additional courses require acceptance into a degree program.
The Non-Degree application is available through the Admissions Portal.
Tuition/Late Registration & Refund Policies
See the Office of the Bursar for information on tuition and refund policies.
Course Withdrawal Information
NEW: Graduate Course Withdrawal Form
After a course has met three times, students must use the electronic Graduate Course Withdrawal Form in order to withdraw. See the Office of the Bursar website for information on tuition and refund policies.
Textbook Information
In compliance with the federal Higher Education Act (2008), a listing of required and/or optional textbooks for courses is made available via the Providence College Bookstore. Faculty are asked to submit textbook information to the College bookstore as materials are identified and retain the right to change book orders at any time. If textbooks are not listed two weeks prior to the start of classes, students should contact the instructor directly. Students are free to choose where they purchase course materials. As good practice, students should carefully evaluate all suppliers of course materials, including their refund policies and shipping charges. It is recommended that students check the Providence College bookstore website prior to the start of the semester for any changes to course materials.
Mandatory Immunization Form
Providence College policy and Rhode Island State law require the College to keep a medical immunization form on file for all full-time students (9 or more credits). Proof of immunity is required prior to registration. Please complete the Immunization Form and return to the Student Health Center, Lower Bedford Hall, 1 Cunningham Square, Providence, Rhode Island 02918.

Canvas functions both as a complement to traditional courses and as a site for distance learning. If you encounter technical difficulties in accessing Canvas, end an email to canvashelp@providence.edu from the email address on file with the college.
Providence College Photo ID
Matriculating graduate students are issued a Providence College ID Card which allows students to check books out from the library, add money to their PC Cash account and their card to spend money on campus at locations such as PC Perk, C-Store, Jazzman’s Café, vending, laser printers, and copy machines. It also acts as on-campus identification. Students must go to the PC Card Office in Harkins Hall 401, between the hours of 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM to have their photo taken. The first card is free of charge. There is a fee for a replacement card.
Parking on Campus
All Graduate, Adjunct, and SCE students are eligible to park on campus at no cost but only after applying for and receiving a parking sticker. These stickers will be valid for the academic school year. To apply for a parking pass, you may do so online through the Department of Public Safety.
