Extended dates of registration; schedule

revisions/withdrawals before term begins

The purpose of the April 1-12 priority registration period was to let continuing and readmitting students select courses prior to the beginning of the term. Click here for further details about registration eligibility, including registration holds, readmission procedures, and a quick myUSI login guide. For a step-by-step illustration of how to look up classes and register via myUSI, review the registration tutorial (PDF file).

Eligible continuing and readmitting students who did not take advantage of the April 1-12 priority registration period will have additional opportunities to register online through MyUSI, according to the chart below.

All continuing and readmission students are eligible to register online, but are urged to first meet with their academic advisor to review their course selection prior to registering. Contact your advisor to schedule an appointment (subject to availability).
Degree-seeking undergraduate students with less than 32 earned hours (freshmen) will have a registration hold placed on their record, and will be eligible for registration only after meeting with their academic advisor to review their course selection and remove the registration hold.
Degree-seeking undergraduates who began at USI in summer 1995 or later should review their Degree Evaluation (through myUSI) prior to registration to check their progress toward degree completion and verify acceptable course options.

Any student who is registered for a semester/term is eligible for schedule revisions and withdrawals for that semester/term. A schedule revision is a drop and/or add that leaves you still enrolled in coursework for the term. A withdrawal is when you drop all courses for the semester/term. If you wish to alter your original schedule, whether by personal incentive or by school directive, you must do so officially. If you do not assume this responsibility, you may jeopardize your record with the possibility of incurring an 'F' in a course not properly dropped and/or not receiving credit in a course improperly added. Merely not attending a course does not automatically remove the course from your record.

NOTES:

Notice of policy change: Students are responsible for their enrollment. Effective fall 2006, enrolled students must take action to drop/withdraw themselves from any classes. The University will no longer cancel students' classes for failure to settle their account. If you do not assume this responsibility, you may jeopardize your record with the possibility of incurring an 'F' in courses not properly dropped. Merely not attending a course does not automatically remove the course from your record.

Students who took advantage of priority registration or registered during the first set of dates (prior to billing, shown in pink) will receive a USI Express Pay email notice when eBills are ready. You will be expected to settle your account with the Bursar's Office by the bill due date (see third column for dates).
Students are encouraged to register at the earliest opportunity. Students who register after the initial eBilling (during dates in the fourth column, shown in blue) will not receive the initial USI Express Pay email notice, but will still be expected to settle their account with the Bursar's Office by the date shown. After registering online, go to 'View Bills/Pay Online' to see your current balance; pay online or visit the Bursar's Office to settle your account. If you anticipate receiving financial assistance to cover your fees, contact the Student Financial Assistance office after registering to request award processing; please register several days before the bill due date in order to allow time for the aid to appear on your account.
Open Registration (the date shown in yellow) is the final opportunity to enroll prior to the beginning of the term. Students will be expected to settle their account with the Bursar's Office by the date shown. After registering online, go to 'View Bills/Pay Online' to see your current balance; pay online or visit the Bursar's Office to settle your account. Any registration that takes place after Open Registration (dates shown in green) is considered a Late Registration. Students allowed to register during the first week of the term (first two days of a summer term) will be assessed a $35 late registration fee; students allowed to late register after the first week (after first two days of summer) will be assessed a $125 late registration fee.

New undergraduate students

As a new freshman or transfer student for fall 2013, you will be required to participate in an Orientation program to introduce you to life at USI. Participation is a prerequisite for registration. Click here to learn more about Orientation; email connect@usi.edu; phone 812/465-7167 or 800/350-7830.

Distance Education Course Registration

USI students follow the appropriate registration schedule to enroll in USI Distance Education courses (a list is found in each class schedule). Because Indiana College Network (ICN) distance education courses require coordination between campuses, students are encouraged to initiate the registration process during priority registration. The ICN registration process must be completed by 4:30 p.m. on the following deadlines:

First Summer 2013 courses: Wednesday, May 8, 2013

Second Summer 2013 courses: Wednesday, June 12, 2013

Third Summer 2013 courses: Wednesday, July 17, 2013

Fall 2013 courses: Wednesday, August 21, 2013

Walk-through processing: you may add or drop courses in person at the Office of the Registrar; only your signature is required. You may withdraw from all classes by submitting a Withdrawal From All Classes form at the Office of the Registrar.

Walk-through processing: you may add or drop courses in person at the Office of the Registrar by submitting an Add/Drop form. The form requires the signature of the instructor of each course being dropped or added, your academic advisor's signature, and your signature. NOTE: only in exceptional circumstances will you be allowed to add a course after the first week of the term (first two days of summer terms). You may withdraw from all classes by submitting a Withdrawal From All Classes form. GRADING: if you drop or withdraw during/after the 10th week of classes (fourth week of First or Second summer, thirteenth day of Third summer), it is 'with evaluation'. You will receive the grade 'W' if passing at the time you drop/withdraw; however, if you are failing at the time you drop/withdraw, you may receive a grade of 'F'.
