COURSE LEVEL
DESIGNATIONS:
100 level
courses
Most 100 level
courses are open to all students without prerequisite. However, some of these
courses do require some background in the subject or, in the case of
introductory photography, writing, and studio art courses, the submission of a
portfolio. Check individual course descriptions for details.
200 level
courses
Many 200 level
courses are also open to all students without prerequisite. However, in some
programs there are strict prerequisites, and the courses are only open to
students with Sophomore standing or higher. Check individual course
descriptions for details.
300 and 400
level courses
Most 300 and
400 level courses have stated pre-requisites, and are open only to students who
have a background in the subject. Upper
College Seminars for moderated students meet once per week, and are limited to
15 students.
v
All faculty members will be in their offices for
advising appointments and course consultation on the morning of registration
from 9:00 am – 12:00 pm. THE ACTUAL SIGNING OF
REGISTRATION CARDS BEGINS AT 1:30 PM FOR FIRST YEAR AND TRANSFER STUDENTS, AND AT 2:30 PM FOR ALL OTHER STUDENTS.
v
Prior to the start of course registration it is a
good idea to have a list of courses you wish to take, as well as a list of
alternatives in case you are not able to get into your first choices.
v
Registration cards will be distributed according to
the following schedule:
First-year and Transfer
students: cards will be in campus mailboxes on Saturday, September 1, 2007.
CSP students and students
returning from a leave of absence should pick cards up in the Registrar’s
Office on the morning of Monday, September 3rd.
v
You must be financially clear in order to
receive your registration card. If you
are not clear please go to the Office of Student Accounts.
v
Students registering for more than 20 credits will
be billed for every credit over 20.
v
Prior to registration day, collect any forms you may
need from the Office of the Registrar, Ludlow 201. On Registration Day the
forms will be available in Henderson Computer Center. These forms include:
v
Irregular
Program Form: needed if you have a
B average or above and wish to register for more than 18 credits or if
you intend to be a part-time student.
v Independent Study Proposal: independent studies are
not the same as tutorials because the research and writing is done almost
entirely on your own. Executive Committee approval and a faculty sponsor are
required.
v Change of Adviser Form: it is not sufficient to
ask your new adviser to sign the registration card. You must complete the
change of adviser form.
v During the registration
period the instructor of each course must sign your registration card.
v After your registration card
has been signed by faculty members have your adviser review and sign the card.
v
Bring
the completed registration card to the Henderson Computer Center where your
registration will be recorded and you will receive a printout of your schedule.
Courses without faculty signatures will not be recorded. No registrations
will be recorded without an adviser's signature.
