Registration is held in late October or early November for the following spring term and in March or April for the following fall and summer terms. Registration for May term international and extensive travel courses generally occurs in the spring term one year prior to the term of travel. Registration for all other May term courses occurs during the fall semester.
New incoming students are provided with a schedule for thier first semester and may work with an advisor to make adjustments as part of the orientation process. Continuing students develop a class schedule in consultation with their advisor. The advisor clears the student to register and the student is able to self-register on or after the student’s assigned registration permit time.
Tri-College Cross-Registration
Loras students may cross-register for courses offered on the Clarke University or the University of Dubuque (UD) campus on a space available basis. Cross-registered credits are considered institutional credits and grades earned are included in the computation of the student’s cumulative grade point average. Not all courses are open to cross-registration. To register for a class at Clarke University or the University of Dubuque, students must complete the “Cross Registration Form” located on the Academics & Registrar page listed under “Academic Forms”. After registration is completed at Clarke University or UD, available seats will be identified and registration completed. Students will be able to see the course on their schedule in Self-Service once they are registered. If the course being taken is meant to apply to a major requirement, students are encouraged to double-check with the appropriate School Dean/Associate Dean and their faculty advisor to make sure that the course they are taking is applicable.
The following regulations apply to cross-registration:
- Credit earned through cross-registration is considered institutional credit, and will affect a student’s Grade Point Average, Satisfactory Academic Progress, and Extra-curricular Activity eligibility.
- A college may refuse to accept a cross-registration from a student who was dropped from that college for academic or other reasons.
- A college may withhold the grades of a cross-registered student if that student has an outstanding balance at that college.
- A college may refuse to accept a cross-registration for a student previously denied admission to that college for academic or other reasons.
Appeals to the above restrictions may be made to the Academic Dean of the refusing institution.
Students who cross-register must follow the academic policies and academic calendar of the institution offering the course. Students must abide by the college/university catalog or bulletin and course syllabi for courses offered at another institution.
