Non-Degree Seeking Students
Fort Hays State University (FHSU), as a regionally accredited university, in the past has offered credit-bearing courses in Shanghai, China during the summer months. Due to the pandemic, this special program was moved online in Summer 2020 through Summer 2023. FHSU’s faculty offers a variety of undergraduate courses that fulfill degree requirements at U.S., Australian, and Canadian colleges and universities. All courses offered are listed in the FHSU undergraduate course catalog as regular offerings and strictly follow FHSU’s academic policies, standards, and learning outcomes with identical course content and rigor as those offered on the campus in Hays, KS. After completion of the courses, students receive official transcripts from the FHSU Registrar’s office to assist with transfer to their home institution.
All courses are offered directly through the University, taught by FHSU faculty, and are not through any third-party educational service provider. All students are admitted to FHSU as non-degree seeking students by the FHSU International Student Admission Office and receive FHSU identification numbers, which provides students access to FHSU’s technology and library resources.
