Registration Information

Self-advising and program evaluation are options for students and is not meant to take the place of meeting with an assigned advisor.  By self-advising the student is accepting responsibility for registration.  Completion of courses that are not part of the student’s program requirements resides with the student.  Students must meet the requirements of their catalog of record to obtain a degree, diploma, or certificate.  Course substitutions require the approval of the appropriate academic dean.

Registration access is based on the number of hours completed toward a degree, diploma, or certificate.  Access dates are assigned as follows:

• If you have completed more than 50 hours, you may access registration on November 11
• If you have completed more than 25 hours, you may access registration on November 12
  
• If you have completed more than 9 hours, you may access registration on November 16
  
• If you have completed 9 or fewer hours, you may access registration on November 17
  
• Special credit students may access registration on November 18
