  3. To plan a course, click a course you have not yet started or a course recommended by your advisor. You may also use the Search for Courses box in the top right corner.  Enter the course ID. For multiple courses, separate each course by a comma (ex: MAT 143, COM 120, SOC 210), then hit Enter.
  4. Using the menu on the left, you can filter the course section by availability, location, term, day of week, etc.

  7. Go back to Student Planning on the homepage and select Go to Plan & Schedule. The planned courses will be listed in yellow.  You are not yet registered for courses.  From this screen you can drop any unwanted courses or sections. NOTEUse directional arrows to ensure that you are planning for the correct semester.

Register

  • Each planned course needs approval from an academic advisor. Navigate to Student Planning on the homepage and select Go to Plan & Schedule.
  • Navigate to the Advising tab (located on the left in gray, just above where the semester is indicated).
  • Click the Request Review button and wait to be notified that your courses have been approved.
  • Once courses are approved, navigate to Student Planning on the homepage and select Go to Plan & Schedule. Click Register for each course individually or Register Now to register for all courses at once. NOTE: Courses you have successfully registered for are highlighted in green and will state “Registered, but not started.”
  • If you are unable to click Register, check the start date for registration or review the Notifications at the top of your screen. Follow instructions to remove holds. Your selected courses will remain on your plan until you register or remove the courses from the plan.

  • Students may also set up a Payment Plan. Contact the Business Office for instructions on How to Enroll.
