Advisement/Registration Information

Students must see an academic advisor for academic advisement/registration. Advisement and registration are provided by the academic advisor and faculty advisors in each of the college's schools and depatments. Your advisor will discuss major requirements, University Core curriculum requirements, and graduation requirements with you. Registration is processed in the Student Information System (SIS) by the advisor and each student will receive a copy of his or her class schedule. Make appointments with your academic advisor early to register for classes for the following semester.

  Credit Overload
The maximum number of credit hours that you may register for in a semester is 18. Dean's permission is required for 19 hours or more. Students on probation may not register for more than 14 hours.
 
 
   

To add or drop a class
If you wish to make any changes to your schedule, (example, adding a class or changing a section), you will need to contact your academic advisor. Drops
must be officially processed by deadline dates. Students may not drop a course merely by stopping attendance; this may result in receiving a failing grade for the course. Check Schedule of Classes for deadline dates.
