## PROCESS:
## Advising and Registration Approval
A degree-seeking student must consult with their designated academic advisor prior to each registration period to receive official approval for their plan of study.
First-time, first-year students may have limitations on the courses for which they can initially register.
## Registration Times and Deadlines
The Office of the Registrar sets and communicates the official registration times for all students. Students are expected to register at their appointed time.
A late registration fee is assessed to students who do not register during their appointed time.
- Late registration for fall and spring semesters ends one (1) calendar week after the last day of standard registration. Students may not register for credit after this deadline.
## Changes in Registration
All changes in registration—including adding a course, dropping a course, changing a course section, or changing a grading option—must be approved by the student's designated advisor and processed by the Office of the Registrar. Instructor approval is required to add a closed class.
A processing fee is assessed for any student-initiated change in registration beginning on the first day of classes for a term.
No fee is assessed for changes caused by a university-initiated course cancellation.
## Course Cancellations
Department Chairs/Deans will inform the Office of the Registrar of all course cancellations no later than two (2) working days after the end of late registration.
- A student enrolled in a canceled course may adjust their registration to replace the course. This adjustment must be completed no later than Saturday of the second full week of classes during a fall or spring semester, or no later than Saturday of the first full week of classes during a summer session.
