Course Information and Pre-Registration, 2009-2010


All of our course catalog materials are available to you and your students on-line at the following web address:  http://www.uncg.edu/reg/Catalog/.  Students can view course descriptions, requirements, and use the on-line Course Search to find out which courses are offered for the upcoming semester. 

 

Lists of courses for the upcoming semesters are available in the Online Course Search.  In many cases, students may take courses outside their given major.  For example, students in business management are eligible to take classes in exercise and sports science; however, some restrictions apply.  Restrictions are listed as numbered hyperlinks in the “Notes” column of the Online Course Search.  Also, be aware that the number of available seats for any given course is displayed in the Course Search. 

 

Exchange students will be required upon admission to use the Course Search in order to determine what courses they wish to attend.  Pre-Registration for courses occurs before the students’ arrival.  More information about pre-registration will be included in the acceptance package.
