Course Selection Windows for Undergraduate and Associate Diploma Students
The course selection windows are based on the number of completed and in-progress credits. To determine when you can begin selecting courses, you can find your number of completed and in-progress credits by running your Unofficial Transcript or viewing your My Academic Progress page on WebAdvisor.
- To view the “My Academic Progress” page, click on the “My Academic Progress” link in the WebAdvisor menu. In the “Total Credits” bar on the right side of the page, add the number of completed credits (in dark green) and the number of in-progress credits (in light green). For more information about the “My Academic Progress” page, watch the Student Planning video tutorial.
- When viewing your Unofficial Transcript, add the weight of each of your current courses (displayed on the “Plan, Schedule, Register & Drop” page when you click on the course name) to the “Total Credits Completed” at the bottom of the transcript.
