Where Do I Find Course Information?
These are the tools you’ll need for choosing courses and registering:
| Course Calendar |
This annual publication is a catalogue of all the programs and
courses that the University offers. It also outlines the rules,
regulations and policies of the University. The calendar is available in PDFs on the website; a limited number of print copies are available for purchase at Student Central.
Two important sections to become familiar with:
|
| Timetable | This is a schedule that lists all courses being offered
in the upcoming terms. It’s a big list, organized by department, available as a large PDF on the the website.
For each course offered, you’ll see the course title, credit hours, term(s), days, times, instructor, location, etc. Remember: Courses are offered in three terms = Fall, Fall/Winter, Winter. Courses can have multiple sections – the same course offered on different days, times, with different instructors. Most 1000-level courses have many sections. You will usually have many choices. Look at the Timetable for "IMPORTANT NOTES" about courses – this is
information you need to know (and it’s not published in any other
place). |
| WebAdvisor | WebAdvisor is the University’s online registration system. It has
many of the features of the Course Calendar and the Timetable rolled
into one.
You can search and read about courses, see when they are offered (terms, dates, times, locations etc.) and if space is available. As an admitted student with an ID and password, you will use WebAdvisor to actually register for your courses. |
