How many courses or credits should I register for?

St. Kate's courses vary from 1-4 credits.

• 3 credits is the minimum to be considered for half-time financial aid.
• 6 credits is the minimum to be considered a full-time student.

Can I deviate from the suggested courses?

Taking the courses your Graduate Enrollment Counselor suggests can help you avoid pitfalls along your degree completion path.

Many courses are not offered every semester and depending on your program some courses have strict sequencing requirements.

Registering for Courses
To add classes to your schedule, first you must select a term.

The Register for Classes page is divided into three boxes.

1. Top: Find Classes, Enter CRNs, and Schedule and Options tabs. 
2. Left-hand bottom: Schedule and Schedule Details tabs. Once classes are added, you can view your schedule details.
3. Right-hand bottom: Summary. Courses you have added or are in the process of adding will display here.

You can search for courses using the Register for Classes page by choosing or adding the appropriate information within the "Find Classes" tab under "Enter your Search Criteria."

• Once you add a course, you should see it as "Pending" under status in the lower right.
• To confirm registration, click "submit."
• You are registered once you see the status changed from "Pending" to "Registered" on the lower right.
• You can check your schedule by reviewing the Schedule and Schedule Details tabs on the lower left corner.

Make sure that you know what percentage of a course you are responsible for paying before you drop a course. The 100% drop period is relatively short – a week, for full-term classes. We also offer first-half and second half courses in spring, summer and fall terms, and j-term courses in spring term, so it’s important that you make sure you check the refund time frame that applies to your course.
