Registration
|
The regular registration of students enrolling in programs occurs prior to the beginning of each term. All eligible students (new and returning) will receive a payment package with clear due dates for payments. Applicants and students who make their payments by the due date will be deemed as completing the registration process. Students who have made their payments will have access to their timetables through their WebAdvisor account a few weeks prior to the start of classes. It is the responsibility of the student to ensure that they are registered in the correct courses. The college reserves the right to adjust timetables throughout the registration period (first ten days of each term). Students should check their timetables on a regular basis throughout the registration period.
