Registration confirmation

Submission of an enrollment form does not guarantee enrollment. Once you successfully submit an online enrollment form, you will receive confirmation that your application has been submitted. If a valid e-mail address has been provided, you will also receive e-mail confirmation of successful submission.

After your enrollment form is received, it is reviewed and processed by our registration staff. If there are problems that would prevent or delay your registration, you will be contacted by phone or e-mail.

Registered students will receive a confirmation letter via postal mail. Please retain this confirmation for your records. The University reserves the right to cancel classes due to insufficient enrollment.

Credit course payment options

See the course payment options information.

Please note:

• Nonpayment of fees will result in a hold on future registrations and the potential of delinquent accounts sent to collections. Official grade reports and/or transcripts will be accessible when full payment has been made.

• In accordance with University policy, students who enroll in a full-term semester course on or after the first day of the semester will be charged a late fee equivalent to one undergraduate credit hour. Students who have enrolled in courses prior to the first day of the semester may add a course(s) without being assessed a late fee.

• All monetary amounts found on this web site are in U.S. funds
