We combine over 350 available courses - including many high-demand classes - with a relaxed campus atmosphere and a convenient class schedule. Registration began April 9th. Get started now. (Adding, changing or switching a course after June 13th will incur a $50 late tansaction fee)
REMINDER:
Our office will close at 3 p.m. on August 29th and will be closed on September 1st to celebrate Labor Day. (to locate your final please go to the courses page)
Please don't forget to review the Session Dates and Deadlines periodically to ensure that all deadlines are met for adding, dropping, withdrawing, payments and refunds. This will help avoid additional paperwork or fees. For the latest news about classes affected by the recent power outage and flood please visit our NewsRoom.
