Course Registration Tip

Today's the big day! You can register for classes!  As you begin, we want to remind you that if you're starting in summer, you'll want to make sure you have the correct term selected in OASIS. You can confirm this by clicking on Select Term under the Student Tab. You will need to register for your summer classes first and then your fall classes.

If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to email us at [email protected] or call at [phone].
