The Office of General Studies schedules registration hours during advisement and registration periods. Initial registration normally involves a campus visit to complete a simple application and registration process and to have an adviser approve the program of study. Telephone registration may be available to continuing students and to students who already hold a bachelor's or higher degree and who seek to enroll in undergraduate course work on a casual basis. Students are encouraged to early register for the coming term. Interested students should call the Office of General Studies for registration periods, which begin as early as March for summer sessions and fall semester, and October for the spring semester.
Admission is conducted on a first come basis and enrollment is limited.
The General Studies advising staff is strongly committed to the needs and concerns of nontraditional students. They provide comprehensive educational planning and academic advisement services for both prospective and current General Studies students. Counselors serve as the academic advisers for all registered General Studies students and are available for phone and in-person consultation at convenient times throughout the year. Hours and services are announced in the General Studies newsletters and publications. General Studies students are encouraged to contact a General Studies adviser to discuss their academic goals and plans.
