Summer 2015 Course Registration began 11/10/14.

This is an option for you to stay on track or get ahead but remember that the SMaRT Scholarship does not fund these courses.

Also note that these courses are a shorter duration than in a Fall/Spring semester so more material is covered in less weeks and you will meet more frequently during the week. o For that reason, it’s a good idea to discuss your

plans with your advisor or Christina ([email protected]) regarding the amount of courses you’d want to attempt in the summer session(s).

Meetings with Christina, your Student Success Specialist:She will be emailing you individually over the next week to set up some regular meetings spaced out over the semester. Please keep an eye out for this email and respond as soon as possible.
