Advising and Course Selection

Registration includes the student’s selection of courses recorded in the Registrar’s Office. Validation is the payment of all term costs. Students are permitted to enter classes only after completing registration with the Registrar and meeting financial commitments in the Business Office. Students failing to validate at the appropriate time are assessed a late fee. Students may not enter a course after the first week of the fall or spring term. During Discovery Term, students may not enter a class after two sessions of the class have been held.

At registration, students accept all terms and conditions set forth in this catalog, the current Course Offerings booklet, the Student Handbook, and official supplements to this catalog. The students will be expected to have taken care of, or to have made arrangements for, all financial obligations to the College (including the payment of all outstanding fines) before they will be permitted to complete the registration process and enroll in courses.

Change of Registration
All changes of registration require advisor approval. The last day to make changes (drop/add) without academic record is the fifth day of the semester (or equivalent for shorter terms). Drop/adds may be completed directly with the advisor, or through the Registrar’s Office using the Change of Registration form. After the last day to drop/add, all changes are made through the Registrar’s Office using the Change of Registration form, and additional signatures indicating approval are required.

A student may not normally add a course after the fifth day of the semester. If a course is dropped during the first seven weeks, a grade of W is recorded. If a course is dropped during the eighth through 12th weeks, a grade of WP or WF is recorded. A course dropped after the 12th week of classes will be marked WF, except for a valid reason such as prolonged illness. Comparable dates are designated for the shorter terms.

Advising and Course Selection
Selection of the proper courses is the student’s responsibility. All students have at their disposal the advice and counsel of faculty advisors. Before registering for any semester, students must consult with their advisors concerning their course selection.
