Registration
Prior to any scheduled registration period, the student must meet with an assigned faculty adviser or major professor to complete a Registration Schedule Form (RSF). This form allows each student and adviser to identify those courses (course name, course number, section number, course computer number, credit hours, etc.) the student wishes to or must take. It also allows the student and faculty adviser to identify alternate section numbers of courses should the student's first-choice section be closed or cancelled, and alternate course selections that fit the student's degree plan should the student's first-choice course selections not be available at the time the student registers.
University policy requires the student to obtain permission from his or her dean should the student wish to take a course overload.
A copy of the RSF will be kept by the adviser, and another will be given to the student for registration. The student must bring a copy to the Registration Center to be admitted.
It is the responsibility of each student to be aware of the requirements of the curriculum in which he or she is enrolled and to register for course work applicable toward the degree concerned. Transfer students should secure personal copies of their official transcripts to present for advisement before and/or during registration; this will avoid unnecessary repetition of courses which may have been completed at another institution and will allow advising to be done more efficiently and effectively.
Complete information about registration policies and procedures can be found in the University Schedule of Classes published prior to the fall and spring semesters and the summer session.
A student will be permitted to attend class only after the instructor has received evidence of official registration from the Office of Records and Registration.
Students may officially drop a course for which they have registered by filing with the Office of Records and Registration a drop form approved by their academic dean and available in the dean's office.
