Advisement and Registration

If you have already registered and paid for your courses for fall 2008, you can skip this section. If you have not registered or if your courses were removed because you had not affirmed enrollment by the deadline, please review the registration schedules below.

New Freshmen - Not Registered

This schedule is only for new freshmen who have not received a class schedule for fall 2008.

Advisement and registration for Fri., Aug. 22:

11 am - Advisement and Registration (course selection). Report to the Seymour College Union - Ballroom

1 – 4 pm - Late-arriving freshmen report to the Seymour College Union - Ballroom

New Transfer Students - Not Registered

This schedule is only for new transfer students and new re-admitted who did not register at a SOAR summer registration program.

General Advisement Sessions in Edwards Hall, Blue Room (100) are scheduled on Fri., Aug. 22 at 11 am and 1 pm.

Please note:

  • You must attend one of the General Advisement Sessions prior to meeting with the faculty to choose classes.
  • Important: Prior to attending a General Advisement Session, you MUST FIRST pick up a copy of your transfer credits and degree audit report at the Office of Academic Advisement, Rakov Center for Student Success. Have these materials with you at the General Advisement Session. General Advisement will prepare you to meet with a departmental advisor by providing an explanation of our transfer policy and degree requirements, with a special emphasis on the new degree audit.
  • Mandatory immunization records are not automatically sent with your transcripts. Visit Health Services to review requirements.

Individual faculty advisement will take place in the Seymour College Union — Ballroom immediately following the mandatory General Advisement Sessions.

Visiting Students

If you are a visiting student, go to Seymour College Union, Ballroom, for registration Fri., Aug. 22, noon – 4 pm. Advisement is not required since you are not seeking a degree at The College at Brockport.

Returning Students - Not Registered

This schedule applies to returning students who have not registered as well as those returning from an approved leave of absence who have not registered. Options for registration include:

In Person — If you live or are visiting in the area, you may register in person through Aug. 21, 8 am – 4 pm weekdays. For undergraduates, this procedure requires consultation with your faculty advisor or department advisor to receive a signed Advisement Form. We recommend that you call ahead to your advisor for an appointment.

Online Registration — Undergraduates should contact their advisor for consultation and assignment of an Advisement Key Number. Then, follow the online registration instructions.

Open Registration — Department advisors will be available Fri., Aug. 22, 2:30 – 4 pm in the Seymour College Union — Ballroom.

Late Registration — The Late Registration Period is Mon., Aug. 25 – Tues., Sept. 12. Obtain the Late Registration Form either in the Office of Registration and Records or online. (The form is available online from Aug. 25 – Sept. 12 at the Office of Registration and Records Web site on the “Forms” page.) Obtain authorization signature(s) from your advisor and all course instructors. Then, return the form to the Office of Registration and Records. Late registration fees will be charged.

Making course changes through the Online Registration System

Students may use the Online Registration System to add or drop courses from their schedules. Prior to Aug. 25, (except Aug. 22) students can drop any courses and add any open sections of courses following the instructions printed in the Schedule of Classes. Once classes begin, students will need signatures or Permission Key Numbers from course instructors to add any course even if it still shows open seats.

The Online Registration System requires special procedures to add a course when permission is necessary or once classes begin. More information on Permission Key Numbers…

  • A set of Permission Key Numbers has been generated for each course in the Schedule of Classes.
  • When an instructor wishes to give a student permission to enroll in a course which is full or requires permission, the instructor will provide that student with one of the Permission Key Numbers from the course list.
  • This six-digit number can be used only once. Once a number has been used in the registration process, it cannot be used by another student.
  • When the student enters a valid Permission Key Number that has not already been used, they will receive a message stating they are authorized to register for the course. The student must then proceed to the Registration/Add/Drop/Classes page to register for the specific course.

The Online Registration System can be used to add classes until Fri., Sept. 12 at 5 pm, and it can be used to drop classes until Tues., Sept. 23 at 5 pm.

In-person adds will be processed through Fri., Sept. 12 at 5 pm. Drops may be processed in-person as follows:

  • First-quarter courses by Tues., Sept. 9 at 5 pm
  • Full semester courses by Tues., Sept. 23 at 5pm
  • Second-quarter courses by Tues., Nov. 4 at 5 pm

 

Check the Schedule of Classes or the Office of Registration and Records for complete instructions.

Adding and Dropping Courses

Registered students who wish to adjust their schedules may add and drop online beginning Mon., Aug. 25, at 8 am. All “adds” must be approved (signature or Permission Key Number) by the course instructor or departmental representative and either processed online or submitted to the Office of Registration and Records by 5 pm, Tues., Sept. 2 to avoid a late add fee. Most “drops” no longer require the instructor’s approval. Drops for courses meeting for the full semester must be either processed online or submitted in writing to the Office of Registration and Records by 5 pm, Tues., Sept. 23.

  • First-quarter course drop deadline — 5 pm, Tues., Sept. 9
  • Second-quarter course drop deadline — 5 pm, Tues., Nov. 4
  • Adding courses online ends Fri., Sept. 12
  • Dropping courses online ends Tues., Sept. 23

Note for freshmen: Once classes begin, freshmen must have written approval from their advisor/APS instructor to add or drop courses. This is because of the placement and block scheduling that is done for freshmen.

Note: If you are receiving financial aid and change the total number of credits you are registered for, you must file a Credit Hour Status Change Form with the Financial Aid Office.

Withdrawing from The College at Brockport

Non-matriculated students: Prior to the semester and during the first four weeks of classes you may drop courses on the Campus Information System. Beginning the fifth week, visit the Office of Registration and Records to obtain the Course Withdrawal Form or download a copy and return it to the office.

Matriculated undergraduates: Mail or fax a letter requesting a Leave or Inactive Status (use Banner ID or social security number). Complete the online form or get a copy of the form at the Office of Academic Advisement.

Refunds and financial aid eligibility (if any) are calculated based on the date of the withdrawal or drop, as confirmed by the Web Banner transaction form, Web form or postmark dated letter, not on class attendance or non-attendance. Students who do not attend classes and accept financial aid may have that aid revoked, and be required to pay the College bill and repay aid received. Further information is available here.

Leaving Brockport and Returning to Brockport

An undergraduate student who earns no credits for three consecutive semesters and is not enrolled in the subsequent (fourth) semester will be classified as Inactive. The student will need to apply for readmission to return to the College.
