COURSE ENROLLMENT:
Your OFFICIAL COURSE SCHEDULE is available through "Just the Facts" on BEAR ACCESS. Please review your schedule very carefully, paying particular attention to grade options (S/U or LET), credit hours, and enrollment in attached sub-courses (labs & sections).
Changes to classroom assignments or meeting times will be reflected on Just the Facts or on the web. The printed Course and Room Roster will not reflect the most recent changes. Always confirm your schedule on-line. Please verify your local and home address so you will receive important mailings such as registration information, grades and graduation information.
CHANGES TO COURSE ENROLLMENT:
Changes to your official schedule will be made primarily by using the online add/drop system available through “Just the Facts.” You will still need to use the Cornell University paper add/drop form available in any Registrar's Office for courses flagged “By Permission of Instructor,” and for other exceptional circumstances. Completed paper add/drop forms, with required approvals, should be submitted to the Engineering Registrar's Office for processing before the deadlines outlined on the reverse side of this sheet. Please keep the following in mind when using paper add/drop forms:
- INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING THE PAPER ADD/DROP FORM:
You do not need ADVISOR APPROVAL if your advisor allows you online access to course enrollment. - DEPARTMENTAL APPROVAL is REQUIRED for most transactions (adds, drops, and changes).
- PRINT all information neatly and legibly.
- Refer to the front of your Course and Room Roster for specific examples of various transactions that you can do on the form (adding/dropping courses and changing credit hours/grade options).
- CHECK all 6-digit Course Identification Numbers (CID) with the current Course and Room Roster, which is also available online at . These numbers change each semester for all courses and are extremely important.
- INCLUDE credit hours especially for variable credit courses.
- If ADDING or DROPPING an entire course, be sure to include all sub-courses (labs & sections) on the form.
- Make a mistake? Cross out the entry and go to the next line ... use additional forms if necessary.
- BRING completed and approved forms to the Engineering Registrar's Office in 158 Olin Hall for processing.
- KEEP your pink (date stamped) copy of the add/drop form as proof of your schedule changes.
- CONFIRM the changes online via Just the Facts the following day.
Students are required to confirm their class schedules throughout the semester on Just the Facts. This will ensure that your semester grade report will include all of the courses you're attending, with appropriate grade options and credit hours. If your schedule is incorrect you may not receive credit for a course you're attending, or you may receive an “F” grade for a course you never attended. Remember, view your courses on Just the Facts - it only takes a moment and it may save you a lot of aggravation later!
