Students are completely free to choose any available elective each semester. Every effort will be made to enroll students in their first elective choice. Should any course be oversubscribed, enrollment will be determined by lottery in order to ensure equal enrollment opportunity for resident and incoming students alike. Students who do not receive their first elective choice are given priority in subsequent trimesters. Student registration for winter trimester electives begins 3 September 2001.
Students register for electives through the Internet.
There you will find the Electives Program Syllabus for AY 2001-02 with a listing of winter trimester electives and instructions on how to register through the Internet. Please register for the winter trimester as soon as possible. Books and other printed materials will be ordered on the basis of your response, and the lead-time for such purchases requires that they be processed in September. Following your arrival at the Naval War College, you may wish to audit an additional elective. However, only electives not filled to capacity, and for which extra books are available, will be open for such an option.
