Tips for a successful registration:

• Do not sign up for a course for which you do not have the necessary prerequisites.

• Select primary course selections as well as alternates, in case you cannot get into  all of your first-choice selections.

•  Doublecheck meeting times, so you don’t schedule a time conflict.

• The normal course load per term is 4 units. At least 3 units per term are required for classification as a full-time student. A minimum of 1.50 units per term is required for classification as a half-time student.

• More information about on-line registration will be available in August.

************************************************************************************************
SPECIAL NOTE:  As per action of the Academic Senate, a student may register for a maximum of 4.75 units prior to the first days of classes.

On or after the first day of classes for a given term, students wishing to elect units in excess of 4.75 may do so with the written authorization of both the major advisor and the Registrar. Such approval requires that the student have a minimum grade point average of 3.200 and no incompletes, and shall be made only after evaluating the student's academic progress and the reasonableness of his or her program.  No student may register for more than 5.5 units in either the fall or the spring term. Students seeking an exception to this policy may petition the Academic Performance Committee. For details, go to Course Overload Policy.
