DIRECTIONS FOR REGISTERING
1.
Prior to registration, consult with your
academic adviser and other faculty members about the courses you plan to
select. Take into account the college graduation requirements when planning
your courses.
UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED, COURSES CARRY FOUR CREDITS.
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. The classes
are limited to an enrollment of 15 students; Upper College Seminars for
moderated students meet once per week.
2.
All faculty members will be in their offices
for advising appointments and course consultation on the morning of
registration from 9:00 am – 10:30 am. THE ACTUAL SIGNING OF REGISTRATION CARDS
BEGINS AT 11:00 AM FOR SOPHOMORE II’s, JUNIORS AND SENIORS, AND AT 1:30 PM FOR
ALL OTHER STUDENTS.
3.
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.
4.
Registration cards will be distributed at check-in,
or you may obtain a card from the Registrar, provided you are financially
cleared.
5.
IF
YOU DO NOT RECEIVE YOUR REGISTRATION CARD BECAUSE OF A FINANCIAL HOLD, PLEASE
GO TO THE OFFICE OF STUDENT ACCOUNTS.
6.
Students registering for more than 20 credits will
be billed $935.00 for every credit over 20.
7.
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:
· 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.
·
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.
·
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.
8.
During the registration period the instructor of
each course must sign your registration card.
9.
After your registration card has been signed by
faculty members have your adviser review and sign the card.
10.
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.
POSSIBLE REGISTRATION PROBLEMS
(1)
You are unable to sign up for a full
load of courses (16 credits) on registration day. Turn in your registration
card with whatever you have signed up for by the end of registration day. You
can always add more courses later using an add/drop form, and at least you will
be registered.
(2)
You cannot find your adviser on
registration day. Talk to Michele
Dominy, Julia Rosenbaum, David Shein, Peter Gadsby, or Diane Smith.
(3)
You lose your registration card. Go
to the Henderson Computer Center.
(4)
You want to change your adviser.
Pick up a Change of Adviser form from the Registrar, have your new adviser sign
the form and return it to the Office of the Registrar.
(5)
You want to register for a tutorial.
No special form is needed. Use the designated
space on the registration card; be sure to indicate the level and number of
credits.
