Applied Psychology Course Selection Instructions Fall 2010

All Applied Psychology Students

Students should be especially careful when preparing to register. Please read carefully the instructions for your program/year and register accordingly. If your class sections are assigned by your department, they will be provided to you prior to registration.

Students must register for their minimum credit requirements or have an approved extended program plan on file to register for fewer credits.

All students should refer to their state licensing regulations for specific course or internship requirements. Some states (Vermont, for example) specify all or most educational requirements be met within the degree program.

Courses Marked “Restricted”

Students should also be mindful of the process involved in signing up for courses marked “Restricted”. If a student is not a member of the group of people to whom a course is restricted, s/he may access registration to the course by obtaining written permission from the director of the program in which the course is offered. This authorization is to be provided to the Registrar’s Office via Antioch email.
