Course Selection Windows for Undergraduate and Associate Diploma Students

The course selection windows are based on the number of completed and in-progress credits. To determine when you can begin selecting courses, you can find your number of completed and in-progress credits by running your Unofficial Transcript or viewing your My Progress page on WebAdvisor.

  • To view the “My Progress” page, click on the "Academics" icon in the menu on the left, click "Student Planning" and then select “My Progress.” In the “Total Credits” bar on the right side of the page, add the number of completed credits (in dark green) and the number of in-progress credits (in light green). For more information about the “My Progress” page, watch the Student Planning video tutorial.
  • When viewing your Unofficial Transcript, add the weight of each of your current courses (displayed on the “Plan, Schedule, Register & Drop” page when you click on the course name) to the “Total Credits Completed” at the bottom of the transcript.

In order for varsity student-athletes to participate in practices and competitions, they may begin selecting courses on October 17 regardless of the number of credits. Student-athletes are encouraged to select courses as soon as possible so that coaches can set team practice times and book facilities for the season.
