Visiting Student Information

The deadline for applying for admission to Morgan State University as a visiting student for Winter 2026 will be Monday, December 8, 2025.  Visiting students must apply for admission and be admitted before registering for classes. Students who are already degree-seeking students at Morgan State University may simply log in to WebSIS to register--they do not need to submit an application.

You will need to apply for admission to Winter 2026 as a non-degree or visiting student via the application form on the Admissions home page: https://www.morgan.edu/apply.  Note that your credits will count toward your degree even though your status will be "non-degree" for the term. Also note that as a non-degree student, you will not be eligible for financial aid for the term.

Visiting students applying for admission at the graduate level, must contact the Office of Graduate Studies for instructions.

Once you have been admitted to Morgan State University as a visiting student, please use your username and password to access the Visiting Student Orientation referenced in your admissions letter. If you are having issues with either your username or password, please refer to this Technology FAQ or contact our Service Desk (443-885-4357 or servicedesk@morgan.edu).  Go to gateway.morgan.edu to access email, WebSIS (the registration and payment system), and Canvas (the online learning management system).

Visiting students may wish to view this instructional video to learn how to register for classes once they have been admitted to Morgan. You may also wish to watch this instructional video describing how to pay your tuition and fees.

If you are a visiting student and need assistance with an override, please contact the Office of Summer Session, Winter Session and Special Programs.

Your residency status (and thus your tuition rate) is determined according to the information you provide in your application form and the Residency Policy set forth by the Board of Regents. If you believe your residency classification is incorrect, please contact us to request a review.
