If you are not a current U of A student, you can apply for admission as a certificate-seeking student.

Games and Simulation is available via main campus and Arizona Online.

Students must meet the same general University of Arizona admissions criteria as degree-seeking students. The requirements and expectations are the same as a first-year, transfer or readmit student depending on what admit type a student is (first-year, transfer or readmit). Students have to fill out the application fully and submit all required transcripts and requested materials. Certificate seeking students (as in Certificate seeking only, not as part of a degree) are not eligible for merit aid or financial aid and if they apply as degree-seeking in the future, they are considered "readmits."


Requirements

Students are required to maintain at least a 2.0 average in certificate coursework to complete the certificate. Students who wish to graduate with an undergraduate certificate should submit a certificate application to graduation services when they have finished the certificate requirements. There is a one-time $15 graduation fee. There are no deadlines to apply to graduate with a certificate.

Up to 2 courses may be shared with a degree requirement (major, minor, general education) or second certificate.

6 units must be completed at the University of Arizona (not transfer).
