Computer Science Registration and Advising
STEPS FOR ADVISING
The following are the appropriate steps to follow in order to register for classes during Registration and Advising Periods:
- Download and print your program requirements. (CSWORKSHEET.pdf)
- Fill in the designated area of the program sheet with the grades of courses that you have already completed and note the courses that you are currently taking.
- Note the courses that you have remaining in order to complete your program, as well as the prerequisites for these courses.
- Check with either the University registration program or the Registration newspapers located around campus and determine which courses are to be offered that fit your program needs.
- Create a mock schedule. Write down the Course name and number, the Course Code (the four-digit number), and the Course times. (You may wish to select some alternate courses—Sections for Courses are sometimes closed.)
- Schedule an appointment with your advisor BY SIGNING UP FOR AN APPOINTED OPEN TIME SLOT—the sign up sheets are located outside the advisor's door. (DO NOT CALL or E-MAIL YOUR ADVISOR TO SET UP AN APPOINTMENT UNLESS YOU HAVE PREVIOUSLY CLEARED THIS APPROACH WITH YOUR ADVISOR).
- At your appointment time, show up on time and have your completed program sheet and your mock schedule with you when you meet with your advisor.
- If you have this information with you, your advisor will be able to either release you for Web Registration or register you directly.
Note: These rules are for Registration periods only, if you need special advising at any other time, your advisor will gladly set up an appointment with you.
