Distance Education REGISTRATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR SUMMER & FALL 2009
Hello! The time for registration for Summer & Fall 2009 semester is here. This
page has all of the links to information you need to register. Here are the
step by step instructions:
For Undergraduates:
- Your first step is to make sure you have no holds on your account.
You CANNOT register for
anything as long as you have a hold on your account (i.e. unpaid bills,
etc.).
- If you have not read the information on the page linked
here then
DO SO! We still have
problems with current distance students not following instructions.
Please read this entire
page.
- If at any time you have a question or concern, check
here
FIRST before e-mailing and asking. Almost 90% of
the e-mail questions sent to the distance education coordinator and
advisors are already answered here. When staff
have to take time answering the same questions over and over it delays
getting students registered and helping other students.
- Your next step is getting your DARS report to see what courses you
need. Questions #3 and #4 at this link
tell you how to get your DARS and how to read it.
- Once you have determined what courses you need, a bulletin of online
courses arranged like your DARS is available
here. If the course is not listed on this bulletin,
then it is generally not available. DO NOT
e-mail and ask to be enrolled in any online courses that have section
numbers of 309 or 620. Those are not regular distance courses!
- Next, determine your registration time. Question #1 at this
link tells you how to do that.
You CANNOT register before
your registration period begins.
- Once your time period for registration begins you can register
yourself for general education courses. Question #8
here tells you how to do that.
If you try and it says "Registration Error", then the course is either full
or you must contact the instructor to get registered. If it asks for an
advisement PIN then fill out this form and the PIN will e-mailed to you.
- If you want a course listed in the bulletin as ICN, then you must
contact Distance Support Services at 812-237-8080 to get registered for
it. ICN courses are taught via distance by other Indiana colleges and
universities. You register for these courses through ISU and your
grades are reported directly to ISU (i.e. no transfer work).
- For your CRIM courses, you MUST
fill out this form to
request them. You will be contacted about your request at your
ISU Outlook e-mail
address only.
- Once you are registered, go here
to
see question #14 about what to do now.
For Graduate Students:
- Your first step is to make sure you have no holds on your account.
You CANNOT register for
anything as long as you have a hold on your account (i.e. unpaid bills,
etc.).
- If you have not read the information on the page linked

the e-mail questions sent to the distance education coordinator and
advisors are already answered here. When staff
have to take time answering the same questions over and over it delays
getting students registered and helping other students.
- The graduate DARS reports are habitually wrong. They do not
correctly show transfer work or course substitutions. These records are
kept internally. DO NOT go
solely by your DARS report! If you are unsure what to take, don't panic.
Go to step #5 and the correct course sequence will be chosen for you.
- If you are an
M.A.
student, to register for
CRIM699 you MUST
already have your thesis committee in place. If you are an
M.S. student, take
note: you MUST do two
CRIM698 internships to get the required six hours of internship credit.
-
For your next step, you MUST
fill out this form to
request classes. You will be contacted about your request at your
ISU Outlook e-mail
address only.
DO NOT ask to be enrolled
in any online courses that have section numbers of 309 or 620. Those are
not regular distance courses!
- All graduate students begin registration March 30th. You will
NOT be able to register
prior to that date!
