How+to+Register+for+Classes

How do I register for classes?
The steps listed below are to help you register for your classes. These steps will be useful for every semester because the registration process rarely changes. If there are any changes made to the registration process, you will be notified by your academic advisor. There are two ways to register for classes. One way to register is by making an appointment with your advisor, the second option to register for classes is to register yourself online.

To register with your advisor you will need to take the following steps:

1. Find out who your advisor is by visiting room 316 in the Delco building. Your advisor is determined by your last name and your major concentration. 2. Make an appointment with your advisor during his/ her office hours to set up a time to register. 3. Make sure you have an updated degree plan for your major. You can obtain a degree plan in Delco room 316. Make sure you have the degree plan filled out with the grade you received in each class listed. This is important to insure that you have fulfilled all requirements. 4. Get an add and drop form from Delco room 316. Write down all of the classes you wish to take. Be sure that this does not exceed 18 hrs or less than 12 hrs (for full- time students). * You must obtain a GPA of a 3.0 or higher to exceed 18 hours. In order to take more than 18 hours in a semester you must get approval from both the dean and the head of the department. In order to substitute a class for a class on the degree plan, you must pick-up a substitution form in Delco room 316. The substitution form must be approved by the dean, your academic advisor, and the department head. 5. Fill out the form completely and turn it in to your advisor when you are ready to register for classes. 6. You and your advisor will discuss the classes you wish to take. If you have met all pre- requisite requirements you will be registered for your classes. 7. Have your advisor print out a copy of your schedule to keep for your personal records. *Please note: It is very important that you meet with your advisor at least ONCE a semester. This is to make sure that you do not take any classes you do not need. Meeting with your advisor can also help you become aware of any changes that may occur throughout the department.
