1. Determine your student status (credit or continuing education student)
To register for classes, you must first determine if you are a credit-seeking student or a continuing education student. Credit-seeking students are students that take courses that earn credits toward degree programs. Continuing education students take courses that do not earn credits toward degree programs, but may earn ceus.
The IT Certification Preparation Classes Web page may help you determine if you are a credit or continuing education student.
2. Make a list of your classes
You can search for classes using the Schedule of Classes or Online Express Services. Need help? - Go to How to search for classes. Make a list of the classes you would like to register for including the Course Code Number.
