Registration Resources for Undergraduate Students
Before You Begin...
It is important to know a few things before you register for classes.
- Undergraduate Catalog - The Undergraduate Catalog provides students with current information about academic policies and procedures as well as curricular information for their major.
- Course Program of Study (CPoS) - Course Program of Study is a federal requirement that allows only courses that count toward a student's program of study (your declared major/minor) be considered when determining federal financial aid eligibility. Click the link to learn more about CPoS and review frequently asked questions before you register for classes.
- When exploring a possible course schedule for the semester, look at the course delivery (also called "course modality") options for each course's section you plan to register (enroll). Information on identifying the course delivery types and where to find this information in Schedule Planner and Eagle Online's "Look up Classes" option is available here - www.tntech.edu/ssc/coursedelivery.php.
- Know what Course Sections are and how some are restricted for specific student groups, types, or majors. We have condensed these down for you here as a quick guide to reference when examining which courses you are eligible to enroll in each semester.
