Registration
Accuracy of Registration
Open Studies students who ultimately wish to qualify for college entry in order to complete a degree are responsible for ensuring that they meet the degree and program requirements of the specific college which offers their chosen degree. Students are therefore cautioned to check all regulations with respect to degree requirements with an advisor in the Dean's Office in the specific college from which they wish to obtain a degree. It is also recommended that students see a faculty advisor in the department of their intended major at least once a year.
All students should confirm their course numbers, sections and laboratories through
PAWS. Students are responsible for ensuring that they are attending the correct course, including number, section and term, for which they have officially registered. Important details on registration policies, procedures and dates for withdrawal without academic penalty are outlined in the
Registration section of the
Calendar.
Changes in Registration
Changes in registration (to add or withdraw from a class or to change a section) are not official until completed through
PAWS. It is the student's responsibility to be aware of the dates by which students may withdraw from classes in order to avoid academic penalty or to avoid financial penalty. Academic penalty and financial penalty dates are not the same. Details are contained in the
Registration and
Tuition & Fees sections of the
Calendar.
