College Course Registration
General Guidelines:

�  Most students take 15-18 credit hours per semester in order to graduate with a Bachelor of Arts degree in 4 years, or an Associate of Arts degree in 2 years.

�  Maximum course load per semester is 18 credit hours.

�  You must maintain at least 12 credit hours within a semester to be considered full-time. This has implications for Student Loan eligibility, scholarship eligibility, taxes, and International Students.

�   Transfer/Continuing students should refer to your program sheet and/or your Transfer Analysis while choosing courses, as you will most likely want to choose courses that fit your program and don�t overlap with your transfer credits or credits you�ve already completed.

�  If the class you want to register for is full, keep trying to register through Briercrest Live up until the Add/Drop deadline.  Spaces often do open up.

�  For modular classes that take place in January or at the end of April and throughout the summer, existing dorm students will only be charged for their meals. Students coming in for the week who need dorm accommodations will be charged for both their room and meals.

�  100 and 200 level courses are generally open to freshmen unless there is a pre-requisite (e.g., anyone may register for BLST 111, but unless you already have completed ENG 100 and ENG 101, you may not register for ENG 210).

�  300 and 400 level courses are not open to freshmen. You must have a minimum of 30 credit hours completed to be eligible to register for these courses. Most 300 and 400 level courses have pre-requisites (e.g., you may not register for BLST 306 unless you have completed 30 credit hours and have completed BLST 230).

�  When registering for cross listed courses, be sure to register for the discipline required in your program (e.g. EDUC/PSY 471). If you need an Education course, register for EDUC 471; if you need a Psychology course, register for PSY 471.

�  Meeting with your Program Coordinator/Faculty Adviser once per semester is required. Please see the list of Program Coordinators/Faculty Advisers at https://www.mybriercrest.ca/college/sheets/
