    What is important to remember after I have registered for courses?

    Be sure to use your academic advisor since he or she:

    • Helps you select your courses
    • Shares information that will help you get the most out of the University
    • Once you have received your final transcript, make sure you are not registered for any duplicate courses. If a course seems repetitive of one you have previously taken see your academic advisor immediately.
