REGISTRATION INFO

Registration instructions, the winter class schedule, and all related information is posted below. Click the arrow to the right of each heading to view details.

COURSE REMINDERS:

  • Exact course numbers (with all 5 digits the same) cannot be repeated for credit. Similar class titles are fine; if the first three digits of a course number are the same, check the last two digits of a course number on your transcript in your student portal to verify that a class will not be a repeat for you. A class is only a repeat if all five numbers are the same.
  • Note the Class Type on the info page for each class to determine if the class will work for you (for example, if the Class Type is Literature, there is no workshop session).
  • Make use of the preview period before the quarter begins (starting 12/18) to review the classes you are enrolled in, so you can make any needed class changes before the quarter begins.
  • See the textbook ordering post for a screenshot and instructions for ordering texts from Lindenwood's Barnes & Noble bookstore.

OPEN CLASSES AS OF 12/1/17
