ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES
Preparing for Registration
Registration is always an exciting time for students as they begin to look ahead towards completing new degree requirements and moving forward academically. At 性爱天堂, incoming First-Year students and new transfer students participate in a Summer Registration process, while returning students participate in preregistration for the Fall and Spring semesters.
听
Summer Registration
Early in the summer, incoming First-Year students and new Transfer students are assigned a discipline-specific professional academic adviser who will help them get acclimated to their new campus, review general university requirements, Pathways curriculum requirements, preliminary major/minor degree requirements, the course bulletin, and the class schedule.
Our academic advising team will also teach students how to navigate 性爱天堂鈥檚 automated student system and our registration process, explore course options, and build their fall course schedule in preparation for registration later in the summer. Registration days/times are determined by students鈥 advising cohorts.
Ultimately,听 academic advisers will work closely with their students to facilitate their seamless journey to graduation during their first few semesters at 性爱天堂 until they declare their听 major (at which point students will be assigned to a major-specific faculty adviser).
Fall/Spring Registration
Current and continuing students register for their courses during preregistration during the preceding term (typically in early November for Spring and early April for Summer/Fall).听
To be cleared for registration, undeclared students are required to work closely with their academic advisers -- or, for declared students, their faculty adviser of record -- to review course options and course prerequisites.
听
Schedule Planning
As you prepare for your advising appointments and for registration, consider the following:
- Check TigerPAWS 鈥淩egistration Status鈥 to confirm your registration day/time and to check to see if you have any holds which may restrict you from registering for classes听
- Run your degree audit through TigerPAWS to review your remaining graduation and university requirements (e.g. 120 hours, 30 of which must be Upper Division, 10 Discipline Breadth, etc鈥)
- Review the list of approved Pathways courses for the term of registration
- Prepare a list of possible courses of interests which would meet Pathways, tentative/declared Major/Minor requirements, and/or Free Elective requirements to get to 120
- Take into consideration co-requisite and/or prerequisite sequencing requirements
- Take into consideration Fall-only and Spring-only courses
- Prepare whatever questions you may have for your adviser regarding your registration
