Incoming Student Onboarding Course
All incoming transfer students will need to complete the Incoming Student Onboarding Course in Canvas to set up an appointment with their academic advisor and register for classes. The course will open on October 15.
Please note, after completion of the onboarding course, you will be able to meet with an advisor to select classes for the upcoming semester. However, registration for our Winterim/Spring 2024 term(s) does not open until November 13. Therefore there may be a delay from the time you met with an advisor to when you can register for classes.
*Remember, if you do not have any transferable Math or English credit, we ask that you please review your Math and English placements on our Placement website.
