I'm taking an interterm trip, do I have to register?

Yes, you still need to schedule the course - that has not automatically been done.

May I select any interterm I want?

No, pay attention to any prerequisites listed for Interterm courses.  If the course requires permission or a certain class level standing, make sure that you meet the criteria.  If students do not meet the criteria, they will be removed from the Interterm class.

May I take 2 interterms?

Only one interterm per academic year can be taken without an additional tuition charge.   Please consult the Academic Dean for any exceptions to this policy.

My advisor mentioned doing a Directed Study or Tutorial, how do I register for that?

Directed Study and Tutorial forms are available at the Registrar's Office.  Students must complete the appropriate form and submit it to the Registrar's Office.  Advisors cannot schedule these courses through WebAdvisor.

My advisor mentioned I need a course substitution. What do I do?

First decide if the substitution is in the Doane Plan or major/minor.  If the substitution is in the Doane Plan there is a form to complete that also explains the required steps.  If the substitution is in your major/minor, send an email to your advisor explaining the substitution.  Upon your advisors approval they will forward it to the appropriate Division Chair, who will review it for approval, and then forward it to the Registrar to be posted on your academic record.

What happens if I forget to register?

Students who do not schedule their courses during the registration period, will be contacted by a member of the retention committee.

What if I register for less than 12 hours?

The business office will bill you as a part-time student.  Estimated bills will reflect your early registration hours and Financial Aid Award letters will be issued based on the registered hours.
