Important Registration Information

Students will use the current system (SIS) during the Spring 2006 semester to access their spring course schedule, student account information, financial aid information, grades, and unofficial transcripts. They will also use Degree Navigator during the Spring 2006 semester as a tool for advising during the course registration process for the summer and fall terms, which begins on Monday, April 3. However, students will not be using the registration component of Degree Navigator to register for courses for the summer/fall terms. Registration for the Summer/Fall 2006 terms will be conducted using Homer Connect. Students are invited to attend a demonstration of Homer Connect, which will replace the SIS and Degree Navigator, on one of the following dates: March 14, 16, 21, 23, 28, and 30 between 12:10 and 1:05 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays in Textor 102.
