Enrolling for Classes

What year are you in college? How are your classes? What's your major?
All of these questions we feel like are asked all the time and really make us think about what direction we are going in our lives and the path we are on.  The first thought in my mind is not only to get my degree, but to think about what it is that will get me there along the way and classes is a major aspect.  Seeing that "senior enrollment" status on the mywashburn tab really freaked me out because this is only my third year in college but I have taken so many classes that I now have a higher standing.  Depending what status you are in your academic year also determines when you can enroll for classes.  This week, Washburn opened up their pre enrollement for the Spring 2014 term.  Here are a few things to make sure you keep in mind and are doing before enrolling for classes:

1. Process a degree audit and see how many hours you have taken
2. Look over the classes offered next semester and have an idea of what you want or need to take
3. Schedule an appointment with your adviser
4. Talk with your adviser and come up with ideas of classes
5. Get your pin number from your adviser
6. Enroll for classes

This is the process I took before enrolling for my classes and it was a breeze! Sometimes it won't let you enroll for a class because you might need a pre requisite class prior to taking the class.  If that isn't the case, sometimes you just need an over ride.

Now that I only have a few semesters left, it is very exciting yet makes me nervous for making sure I'm taking all the right classes. Make sure you are on the right path to success!
