To-Do List: J-Term/Spring 2012


♦ Read the Registration Instructions

It is very important for you to read this information in detail before registering. The printed schedule in .pdf form is available on this site, along with details about January Term policies and procedures, offerings at Mt. Vernon Square and other off-campus locations, and online/hybrid course opportunities.

♦ Read Dean Amy Oden's blog "From The Dean's Desk"


♦ Visit your Faculty Advisor

You are strongly encouraged to meet with your faculty advisor at least once during the semester to touch base and keep up with the progress of your studies. You can find the name of your advisor listed on the "My Profile" page in WesleyWeb. It is your responsibility to meet with your advisor during your first semester and to submit a Degree Plan Worksheet to the Registrar's Office. Students who entered in Spring 2011 or before and have not yet submitted a plan will be blocked from registration until a plan is submitted. Other holds may be in force due to lack of completed Health Insurance waiver, Immunization, Background Check, Covenant, or Academic Planning/Orientation participation. Check under the "My Holds and Warnings" link in WesleyWeb to confirm that your registration is not blocked.

♦ Check the status of your student account

Students who have outstanding balances on their student accounts will not be allowed to register for Limited Enrollment courses or other courses until their accounts are cleared. You can check the status of your account by checking the "My Holds and Warnings" page on WesleyWeb.

♦ Pre-register for Limited Enrollment courses

Pre-registration for Limited Enrollment courses begins on October 24 and ends at 1:00 PM on November 4. See specific details in the Registration Instructions. Remember that you may also register for non-Limited Enrollment courses at this time as well.

♦ Register for courses

See the Registration Instructions for specific dates and details related to registration. Pay close attention to deadlines to avoid paying late fees.

♦ Contact the Business Office

Each semester following registration, you need to make arrangements to pay your bill for the semester, have your ID validated and pick up your meal tickets. Students have until the end of the add/drop period to either pay their bill in its entirety or sign up for the TuitionPay plan through Sallie Mae or they will risk withdrawal from all Spring/J-Term courses.

♦ Check your Wesley Email

Announcements about registration including updates to the schedule, waitlist notifications, and emails sent by professors through Blackboard will always be sent to your Wesley email address. Therefore, it is crucial that you either check your email frequently or forward your account to another address that you use.
