USEFUL INFORMATION

Consortium registration is not available online. Consortium registration is by pre-approved Consortium Form (available in the Registrar’s Office) on the first day of class at the host institution. Consortium forms require approvals by one’s advisor and the department chair for each course to be taken. See schedules online at host schools’ websites. Registration is subject to space availability after home campus students register. It is recommended that students enrolled in Initiate not take a Consortium course. Go to Guilford College Catalog, and type Consortium in the search box. Guilford students are under the rules and dates of the consortium school.

Credit/No Credit Grading is an option, if approved, for students for a course that is neither a general education, major nor minor requirement. But credit/no credit grading cannot be arranged online. Rather, a Drop/Add form, with instructor, advisor and student signature must be submitted to the Registrar’s Office before the last day for adding courses.

Historical Perspectives courses should be taken immediately after English 102.

REGISTER

View Spring/Summer 2025 Schedule.

After you register online, a screen appears that verifies course registration and/or states reason(s) for denied enrollment in certain courses.

Print the registration page or student schedule for your records. It is your official receipt. You may need it to resolve potential problems or errors in your registration. If you want to save money on printing costs, you may also download a copy of your schedule as a pdf on your computer or smart device.

Each student is solely responsible for their schedule. Simply attending class does not mean that registration is complete; and non attendance in a class for which you are registered does not mean it is dropped. A Drop/Add must be processed (using BannerWeb) by the published deadlines.

Once registered, you are officially enrolled at Guilford and financially responsible for charges. If you decide not to attend classes, you must notify the Office of Academic and Student Affairs (See the section on “If you do not plan to enroll Spring 2025” below in order to withdraw officially).

Specialized courses that require supplemental materials or aides may contain course fees. Course fees are viewable on BannerWeb by clicking the course title and then checking if there are “Base fees.”

Below is an example of a course with a course fee:
First Aid – 10656 – SPST 142 – 001
Base fees (other charges may apply)
First Aid Course Fee $37
