Dates to Remember - Fall Semester 2009


Important Semester Dates | Refunds and Drop/Add Dates | Billing Due Dates

Remember to register as early as possible. Your registration may not be entered on the same day you send it in to the UNITE office. "Requests for Graduate Credit for Non-degree Students" may take several days because they are sent over to the Registrar's office. "Adult Specials" and "Change of College" can take a week, or longer, to be entered because they are sent over to the admissions office. You may also have to work with different offices to clear holds. The closer to the beginning of school, the longer the registration process takes because everyone is busy.

Access to streaming video can take up to 72 hours after student is officially registered. This means late registrations may not have immediate access to streaming video when school starts.
