Student Enrollment Process

An academic advisor is assigned during the graduate admission process. Students are required to meet in person with their academic advisor prior to enrollment. During the remainder of their time in the program, students have the option to either (1) meet in person with their academic advisor for enrollment advising, or (2) contact their advisor by email or by telephone for enrollment advising. During this advisor contact time, the academic advisor discusses degree and enrollment options and opens the student’s portal for online registration. Graduate students may enroll prior to the start of each term during the registration period.

Students may register themselves for classes through their student portal after it is opened by their academic advisor. Once the initial enrollment is completed, the academic advisor closes the student portal. If a student decides after the initial enrollment to make a schedule change or withdraw from classes, the student must contact the advisor again, who will open the student’s portal for the enrollment change. It is the responsibility of the student to schedule this contact time with the advisor and to complete the enrollment process each quarter.
