Early Registration

If the Graduate School has received your official transcripts (official notification that your undergraduate degree is complete), you may register during early registration. Otherwise, you can register during the registration period in January or August. Don't worry, all your classes have space reserved for you. For help with registration, a registration tutorial is available: Registration Tutorial

Days Prior to Beginning of Term

Orientation

The Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders conducts its own mandatory orientation session during the two days prior to registration (you will receive a letter notifying you of the dates/times/location for the orientation). The Graduate School's orientation sometimes conflicts with the Department's orientation, so you should plan to attend the Department's orientation.

January or August

Registration

Be sure to register for the courses specifically identified by your advisor. For help with registration, a registration tutorial is available: Registration Tutorial
