Registration Procedures

Directions and exact dates for pre-registration are issued each year in the Schedule of Courses.  A Schedule of Courses may be obtained at the Office of Admissions and Records (406-657-2303), or by contacting the Office of Graduate Studies (McMullen First Floor West, 406-657-2238).  All students are held responsible for knowledge of listed dates.

Late Registration

Students are expected to complete registration within the dates stated.  For any delay beyond that period, unless University officials cause such a delay, a late registration fee of $40.00 will be charged as stated in the General Bulletin.  Students permitted to register late must pay the full fees.  Students who fail to pay fees or to have their fee payment arranged before the final fee payment day will have their classes deleted for that semester.

Repeated Courses

When a course in which a student has previously attempted credit is repeated, the credit and the first grade received are canceled.  The credit and second grade are recorded, even if the second grade is lower.  In order to inform the Office of Admissions and Records of a repeated course, the student must file with the Admission and Records Office a Repeat Form that identifies the proper course numbers.  The numbers of times a course may be repeated as well as the number of courses allowed to be repeated are determined by each program.   Students MUST have the permission of their advisor before repeating any class.

Adding Courses

Students may add courses during the first seven instructional days of each semester.  Students may add courses after the 7th instructional day and up to the 15th instructional day only with the approval of the instructor and the department chairperson.

Final Examinations

Final examinations are scheduled during the last week of each semester.  A final examination schedule is published in the Schedule of Courses and a copy of the schedule is available at the Office of Admissions and Records.
