REGISTRATION PROCESS
Registration for classes is held twice a year and is completed during the prior semester. The dates, times and locations will be announced by the Registrar. A late registration fee of $30 is charged to those students who fail to register during the dates provided by the Registrar. Fall freshmen are provided with schedules and have the opportunity to make any necessary schedule changes during the first week of the semester.
Students registering for classes will receive a packet which includes a Course Offering booklet, a copy of their transcript and a registration form. All students must meet with their Academic Advisor prior to registering.
Students who have outstanding balances will not be permitted to register.
Note: All incoming freshmen must attend the Orientation program as scheduled on the academic calendar. Pertinent information on Orientation will be sent to the student's mailing address of record.
Successful registration each semester consists of:
- consulting with the Financial Aid Office concerning eligibility and support
- paying tuition and fees in the Business Office
- obtaining an official schedule from the Registrar
- purchasing books and supplies from the College Bookstore
Students are permitted to attend only those classes for which they have officially registered and paid. An officially registered student is one who:
- has submitted an approved registration form
- has reconciled all charges with the Business Office
- has been accepted for scheduling by the Registrar
- Full-time: 12-21 credits per semester
- Three-quarter time: 9-11 credits per semester
- Part-time: 6-8 credits per semester
- Less than part-time: 1-5 credits per semester
A student typically carries 12-21 semester hours in both the fall and spring semesters. Credits in excess of 21 require the signature of the Vice President of Academic Affairs and may be at an additional cost.
