Registration Changes

We are striving to improve the registration process this semester. After meeting with several high-level campus administrators, we have received approval to reduce the number of students registering at any one time. This change should allow the servers to better handle the load during these times of heavy usage.

An email will be sent this afternoon to students, faculty, and staff notifying them of this change in addition to this post.

The following schedule will be used for each classification:
Time:      Last Name begins with:
5:30PM     GP - KL
6:30PM     CJ - GO
7:30PM     KM - NO
8:30PM     A - CI
9:30PM     NP - SH
10:30PM     SI - ZZ
Registration times will be cumulative. For example at 6:30PM people with the last names that start with GP through KL and CJ through GO would then be able to register.

At this time we want to remind you to take a look at our tips for efficient registration.

Tips for Efficient Registration

Students, this tip's for you!

Early Registration will be starting November 9th for the Spring semester. The main piece of advice here is to plan, plan, and then plan some more!

First, you'll need to take care of any outstanding payments that you may owe the university. This may include past due tuition, parking tickets, or library fees for overdue books. You can make your payment online or by visiting the Cashier's Office in the Estill Building, room 103.

You'll need to check to see if you need to be advised before you register. If you meet one or more of the below criteria, you will need to be advised by the SAM Center before registering.

• Students whose current overall SHSU GPA is BELOW 2.5.


• Students who do not have a SHSU GPA (new freshmen and new transfer students).


• Students with 90+ semester hours.


• Students subject to the Texas Success Initiative (formerly TASP) regulations.


• Students placed on probation at the close of the current semester must be advised/re-advised.

Next, check out the Schedule of Classes and your DARS degree plan to plan out what courses you need to take. Make note of the course identification numbers (CID) so that you have them when it is time to register. CIDs are the 4 digit numbers assigned to each course that is being taught. It will speed up your registration process, because you can eliminate searching for the courses. You'll have all the information needed to register. While you are at it, it would also be a good idea to have an alternate schedule in case the courses you wish to take are already full by your time to register.

Lastly, be sure that you have completed any pre-requisites for the courses you want to take and have the proper departmental approvals if needed.

Registration will start at 5:30 PM on:
Nov. 9: Honor Students
Nov. 12 - 13: Doctoral, Grad, Post Bac, and Seniors (94+ semester hours)
Nov. 14: Juniors (64 - 93 semesters hours)
Nov. 15: Sophomores (32 - 63 semester hours)
Nov. 16: Freshmen (under 31 semester hours)
Nov. 17 - Dec. 5: Open Registration Period

**Payment will be due for Advance Registration by 4pm on December 6, 2007. If payment is not made by this deadline, your schedule will be dropped and you will need to re-register for your classes.
