  • Number of CORE credits selected shows enrollment in at least 12 credits.

If there are any concerns, you’ll be contacted for an advising session, to take place either on-campus or via telephone. Otherwise, you’ll receive an e-mail stating that your enrollment form has been reviewed, approved, and processed.
