Spring 2027 Course Schedule & Time Ticket
The Spring 2027 course schedule will be available to view on HomerConnect and DegreeWorks beginning Monday, October 19, 2026, by noon.
On Monday, October 26, 2026, after 12 p.m., students will be able to view their Registration Status (aka Time Ticket) on HomerConnect. Time tickets are assigned after Fall Block I final grades are due (Wednesday, October 21, 2026). Your Registration Status/Time Ticket tells you the day and time you may begin to register for classes. Assignments are based on credits EARNED, which can be viewed in HomerConnect as “Overall Hours” or in the DegreeWorks header as “earned credits.” DegreeWorks also includes credits applied, which is NOT used for assignments.
To ensure the most accurate time ticket, students should complete the following prior to Friday, October 9, 2026:
- Confirm all transfer credits have been awarded, including but not limited to AP, IB, and CLEP.
- Complete any change of majors/minors/concentrations via IC Workflow.
- Ensure NGS and Incomplete grade changes are completed.
- Time Ticket assignment is based on credits earned; in-progress Fall 2026 credits ARE NOT considered for the purposes of Time Ticket assignment.
To check your credits earned, navigate to your Student Profile page on HomerConnect and view Overall Hours, or view Earned Credits in the DegreeWorks header.
When using your HomerConnect Profile page, ensure the Spring 2027 term is selected in the upper-left corner. To find your time ticket, click Registration Notices in the upper-right corner. You can also check holds here. Not all holds block registration; please be sure to look at Processes Affected, and reach out to the originator of the hold to resolve the issue.
Once Spring registration begins, Prerequisite Checking and Course Restrictions WILL include review of your in-progress Fall 2026 courses.
The IC Workflow override system opens with your time ticket (not before). You cannot submit an override until your time ticket opens.
