Undergraduate Registration Information
Schools of Arts and Sciences, Business, and Leadership Studies
Prerequisites
Students should consult the catalog and/or department for required prerequisites before registering for a course. Successful registration for a course does not mean that prerequisites have been fulfilled. A student registered in a course without the required prerequisites may be unenrolled from the course.
Limits of Work
A student normally enrolls for four or five units per semester. The minimum load for a full-time student is 3.5 units.
No student may enroll for more than 5.5 units or fewer than 3.5 units of work without the permission of the dean of his or her school. (Arts and Sciences - see coordinate college dean; Business and Leadership Studies - see academic dean.) Enrollments in either category are subject to special charges as specified in the chapter titled Financial Affairs. Students enrolled for fewer than 3.5 units are classified as part time.
Guidelines for Approval to Register for a School of Continuing Studies Class for Arts & Sciences, Business, and Leadership Studies Students
Arts and Sciences, Business, and Leadership Studies students are restricted in registering for School of Continuing Studies (SCS) academic courses by the following provisions:
- Generally, registrations for SCS courses that cover the same subjects as courses offered in Arts & Sciences, Business, & Leadership will not be accepted.
- No SCS course may be used to fulfill a general education requirement and may only be used to fulfill major or minor requirements if specifically approved by the chair of the major or minor department (must be checked “Yes” on the form under "Approved for Major/Minor Credit".)
- Students may not take more than one SCS course a semester and no more than four courses in cumulative total during their undergraduate degree. SCS courses are not available to Arts & Sciences, Business, or Leadership students for registration until the first day of class and only on a space available basis.
- Students enrolled in SCS courses are expected to abide by the SCS academic calendar, including holidays (SCS does not take a fall break) and examination period.
- Once completed, SCS courses will appear on a student’s transcript and will count in their semester and cumulative GPA. Note: A 3-semester hour SCS class counts as .86 units while a 4-semester hour class counts as 1.14 units.
Undergraduate Class Schedules
Class schedules are published for each semester and for the summer sessions. Schedules list courses that will be offered in the upcoming semester; refer to the school's catalog for a full list of courses available (but not necessarily offered in a given semester).
