Step 2: See Your Advisor and Get Access Code for ISIS

You must meet with your advisor to gain access to ISIS for course enrollment. Your advisor can also offer assistance planning your schedule. Identify your advisor by checking ISIS Online. If you have changed advisors and notice did not reach Garrett Hall by March 17, obtain your advising information from your previous advisor.

If you have declared a major, plan to see your advisor between March 24-28. Follow department procedures to obtain your ISIS access information.

If you have not yet declared a major, plan to see your advisor between March 31 and April 4.. Be sure your advisor releases your ISIS access information to you before leaving his/her office.

Students without an advisor or who choose to bypass the advising system may enroll in classes on or after April 14.

Step 3: Enrollment in Courses Using ISIS

Course enrollment using ISIS starts on Monday, April 7. You may enroll in 15 credits; on August 1 you may enroll in up to 17 credits.

If your are blocked, check ISIS to determine the source of your block; clear the block and continue the process.

If you are denied enrollment in a course because it requires the instructor's permission, you must contact the instructor and enroll using a Course Action Form. If you are denied enrollment because a course is wait listed, you should put your name on the waitlist when it opens. If a couse is full but not waitlisted, you will need to enroll via ISIS if a space opens. Courses are flagged with these restrictions in the COD.
