PLANNING YOUR SCHEDULE
“ A goal without a plan is just a wish.”- Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
Registration Terminology
Add and Drop: Students may drop courses from their schedule and / or add other courses through the date published on the Dual Enrollment website.
Holds: Holds may be placed for a number of reasons including outstanding admission requirements, unpaid financial obligations or an incorrect address. Certain holds can prevent registration. If the message center tells you that you have a hold- or if you can’ t register because of a hold – visit easternflorida. edu / go / holds for a guide to determine the type, what it means and how to resolve it.
Prerequisite: Sometimes courses require students to have a certain level of knowledge before registering. For example, you must take ENC 1101 Composition 1 before you can register for ENC 1102 Composition 2. Thus, ENC 1101 is the prerequisite for ENC 1102. Tip: Refer to the Class Schedule Search or Catalog for information on a specific course.
Corequisite: Some courses require students to take a course at the same time as another course. For example: if you enroll in CHM 1025 College Chemistry, you must also enroll in the corequisite required course of CHML 1025 College Chemistry Lab.
Withdrawal: Students may withdraw from courses during a term, but there are established procedures and deadlines for doing so. The College Catalog and / or College website specifies the procedures. Approval from a high school counselor is required.
Catalog Year: The catalog year at EFSC starts every August. The academic year catalog is posted online each July 1, impacting program terms starting in August through June of the following calendar year.
Family Educational Act and Privacy Act( FERPA): Federal law that affords parents the right to have access to their children’ s education records, to seek to have records amended, and to have some control over the disclosure of personally identifiable information from the education records. When a student turns 18 years old, or enters a postsecondary institution at any age, FERPA rights transfer from parents to the eligible student. EFSC will not release educational record information to anyone other than the student without the student’ s written authorization.
