Additionally, here are some tips and tricks to get through Prereg:
|
- The preregistration period runs from Monday, Nov. 4 through Friday, Nov. 22. Schedule a meeting with your faculty advisor (required) and your Hub advisor (optional) to go over your degree progress and planned coursework. DO NOT wait until the last portion of the preregistration period to try to meet with your faculty advisor!
- If you’re planning to take a language, you will want to ensure you have completed the necessary language placement process to submit language course choices during preregistration.
- If you want your Hub Advisor to review your plan but don’t want to meet, no problem! Plan your coursework in Stellic and send a request to your Hub Advisor to review your plan.
- When planning, you may notice unmatched courses with the grade of GW in your Stellic record. This means the course evaluation has not been completed yet. In order to remove the GW and see those courses reflected in your audit appropriately, you will need to complete the course evaluations in Banner.
- There are times when you may need a COI pin to submit course choices for preregistration. If you are requesting permission to register for a course that you don’t have the prerequisite(s) for or the course description states a COI is needed, then please email the professor of that course to request the COI pin. You will utilize that pin to add the course to your preregistration tab in Banner.
