Last Update/Revised:	08/31/2023

Policy: The University utilizes online registration functionality through the Student Portal. Once student has been accepted the student will have the ability to self-register. Students in the BSN Pre-Licensure program who have reached the Nursing Core courses must register with their assigned cohort. Students will self-register through the Student Portal after their cohort's schedule has been preloaded into the Student Portal Registration tool. Students must progress through the courses required for their degree in a prescribed order. The goal of this requirement is to ensure continued success and to confirm that students have an adequate foundation of knowledge to continue on in their program as the courses build. Students may add and/or drop courses through the add/drop period.

Students are not permitted to request a specific faculty member, nor request to avoid a course that a particular faculty member is teaching. The university reserves the right to make determinations about student scheduling in accordance with the needs of the college.

In programs that contain pre-requisite courses, students may not register for the next course in the sequence until that course's pre-requisites have been successfully completed. A student may not register for a class and a course prerequisite in the same session. Information on course prerequisites or co-requisites can be found in the course descriptions in the academic catalog.

For assistance with registration or course planning, students may contact their Academic Advisor.

Purpose: This policy is to provide clarity on how students can register and set expectations regarding curriculum requirements.
