Students, with winter registration approaching we wanted to provide some tips for planning your classes. Did you know that your class status is determined by the number of courses you have earned credit for and have a grade posted? So, although you may be currently taking your 7th class/credit, it isn’t complete so your student status will not change. Not sure of your current class status?
