4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Mike: this is a good option, however I finally used "non-regular student", because here in Argentina the !Alumno libre" does not attend classes. He only enrolls for final examinations and sets for the exam. In my context I think non-regular student gave a more accurate idea. On the other hand we also have auditors in our schools (those who attend some classes but are not regulars either) Thanks irma (Argentina)"

non-degree student

"You are not currently pursuing a degree at CU, but you are interested in taking classes for personal or professional development or to try out a degree program. Perhaps you attend another college or university and want to transfer evening or summer classes back to your home institution. Continuing Education offers a variety of ways for you to try out CU-Boulder and even earn college credit without applying to the University! We also offer a variety of noncredit courses and certificates that allow you to gain valuable skills and experiences."

No sé para dónde es tu traducción, pero yo pondría una N.de T. porque creo que no hay un equivalente.Yo pondría una aclaración diciendo por ejemplo:Free Student : without being admitted to a complete study cycle, is authorised to enrol in several classes ; has to complete the work as required and if he succeeds, may have the obtained results acknowledged.

Ésta puede ser una opción.
Por supuesto, debería agregarse una N. del T. para explicar el término,como la que dió Lozano, por ejemplo.
