REGISTRATION GUIDELINES
Undergraduate students must register for either 100- or 200-level courses only; graduate students for 300-level courses only.
YOU WILL REGISTER ON A FIRST-COME, FIRST-SERVE BASIS. You may begin registering online according to the schedule that appears on the Registrar's Office Courses and Schedules webpage and as determined by your "class for registration purposes."
Holds: Check your web account to be sure that there are no holds on your record. Go to the Check Your Registration Status screen and scroll to the bottom; click on View Holds. All holds must be released in order for you to be able to register at your appointed time.
PIN Number: During your advising session, your faculty advisor will provide you with your six-digit PIN number. Keep track of this number, as you may need to enter it EACH TIME you register online.
Instructor Permissions: If you are unable to register for a particular course because of a restriction (e.g., missing prerequisite, instructor signature, etc.), email the instructor of the course and request online permission to enroll. Only the course instructor can give you this permission. To verify that online permission has been granted, go to the Check Your Registration Status screen of your student web account and look for "Registration Permits and Overrides." You may then register online yourself for that course.Directed Study and Honors (undergraduates): Registration for all such courses is by permission only. If you see a Directed Study or Honors course for a particular instructor on the web schedule, ask the instructor for online permission to enroll. Use the CRN number for that course when you register online. If you do not see that course on the web, enter the subject designation (e.g., HIST) and the appropriate course number (Directed Study = 299; Honors = 297) on a Course Selection and Add/Drop Form and obtain the instructor's signature. Bring the signed form to the Registrar's Office.
Internships (undergraduates): Registration for an internship is by permission only upon completion of the appropriate Internship Program materials. Using a Course Selection and Add/Drop Form, enter the subject designation (e.g., HIST) and the number 298 in the Course & No column. Leave the Sect column blank. Print the faculty supervisor's name in the Title column and obtain a signature from the Career Services Office in the Permission column. Bring the signed form to the Registrar's Office.
Audits and Pass/No Record: Students choose these registration options during the add/drop period at the beginning of each semester. (P/NR option for undergraduates only.) Information on how to register will be provided at the beginning of the semester.
COPACE Courses: Beginning in their sophomore year, undergraduate students may register online for a COPACE course that has been approved for day college credit. Be sure to check the Comments column on the schedule grid link to COPACE for approved day college courses. Students may take one COPACE course each semester during the academic year up to a total of four courses. (Summer COPACE courses are not included in this total.).
Off-Campus Programs: Undergraduate students who have been accepted into next semester’s Study Abroad, Washington Center, or Washington Internship programs will be registered by the Registrar's Office based upon information provided by the Study Abroad Office. However, students must still have all holds cleared from their accounts in order to be registered.
Consortium Registration: Full-time Clark undergraduate students (that is, registered for at least three units of credit at Clark) may take one Consortium course each fall or spring semester. Class schedules of Consortium schools can be accessed at www.cowc.org. Click on the name of the school, then search their site for Registrar's Office. Most schools have links to their semester course schedules from the Registrar's office webpage. Students register for Consortium courses by filling out the cross-registration form, which is available at the Registrar's Office. When you have obtained all the necessary signatures, bring the completed form to the Registrar's Office. Students must abide by the calendar and policies, including grading standards, of the host institution. Late fees may be charged. Consortium registration is not available to first-year or first-semester transfer students.
