Undergraduate
registration Details
Live Registration
- You should see your
Adviser BEFORE your window opens in case you have questions about
what you should schedule.
- If you need permission to take a class, you must
get that permission posted prior to when your window opens (this
may require visiting both
a professor and your Adviser).
- If you have a hold on your account (overdue
library book, parking ticket, etc.) you must have it cleared BEFORE
your window opens. Contact the
office that has placed the hold on your account.
- Your priority is built
into your window time. Thus, in order to secure your scheduling priority,
YOU MUST CALL WHEN YOUR WINDOW OPENS.
- Every minute you wait to schedule,
someone who has lower priority than you have gets a chance to register
for the course(s) you wanted.
- When you call BRUTUS (or register
via the Web) you should schedule ALL of your classes at that time.
- Since it is
LIVE registration, you will know immediately whether or not you are
in a class. This makes it very important to be prepared with
backup times for the classes that you are interested in taking, in
case the SECTION you want is filled. You should also have alternate
course
choices ready in case the COURSE is completely filled.
- If you have prior
Wait List requests, you will be assigned a separate window during
which you may request only the waitlisted course(s).
Adding Classes
- Once your window
opens, you are able to add classes (if they are still open) on
the Web until
the evening of the first Friday of the quarter.
- After the first Friday
and through the second Friday, you must have the permission of
the instructor (on a Permission
to Enroll form) to
enter
a class. This requires getting the form from the front desk of 050 Denney Hall or from your department and having it signed by the instructor.
After getting the appropriate signature, you must have the form processed
in 050 Denney Hall.
- After the second
Friday through the third Friday, you must have the permission of
the instructor AND the permission of
the Department Chair
of the course
you want to take (on a Permission to Enroll form) to enter a class. This requires getting the form from the front desk of 050 Denney Hall
or
from your department and having it signed by the instructor and the
department chair. After getting the appropriate signature, you must
have the form
processed in 050 Denney Hall.
- The only way to add a class after the third
Friday is by petitioning your college office. You must also have the above two signatures.
Wait List Instructions
- You are placed on a Wait List
if you are unable to schedule a course during registration due to time
conflicts, closed sections, or canceled
sections. You must meet all prerequisites for the course before you can
be waitlisted for the course.
- You are added into a course from the Wait
List on a "first-on, first-off" basis
as space becomes available that fits your schedule. The Wait List is
not section specific. The system will add you into the first available
section that fits your schedule (for this reason, you may want to schedule "free
time" if you cannot take classes at a certain time)
- Check the Wait
List weekly before the quarter starts.
- Check the Wait
List daily during the entire first week of classes
- The Wait
List will be active through the first Friday of the quarter
- You should attend
the first week of class if your Wait List number is low or if you
really, really want the class. Get a permission slip and
talk your way into the class.
- It is your responsibility to know whether
or not you have been put into a class
- If you do not get into a waitlisted
course in the quarter when you originally request it, you will be
assigned a separate registration window prior
to your normal one for the next quarter the course is offered. You
should register for the course during the earlier window, which gives
you priority
scheduling for the waitlisted course. BRUTUS will not automatically
request your waitlisted course for you.
Dropping Classes
- Before dropping classes, consider how this will affect
your progress towards degree and your financial aid status (if applicable).
You may wish to consult with a financial aid adviser about the consequences
of dropping a course.
Information about financial aid
- You
may drop classes online, through the third Friday of the quarter.
- You
may drop classes in the college office through the seventh Friday
of the quarter.
- If you drop on or before the third Friday no record
of your enrollment will be recorded on your transcript.
- If you drop after
the third Friday of the quarter, you will receive a "W" on
your transcript, indicating that you withdrew. Too many W's on your
record shows a pattern of irresponsibility.
- You cannot drop classes after the
seventh Friday without a petition. If, because of extreme extenuating
circumstances, you wish to drop a
class after the seventh Friday, see an Arts Adviser to help you
with the petition form. You will need supporting evidence from your
instructors
and any other supporting materials. (Proof, for example, of medical
complications that prevented you from finishing the course.) You
cannot drop after
the seventh week simply because you are doing poorly in a class.
