Registration and Attendance

Registration and Advising

Each student is assisted by the HUGO Office to develop and register for theri personalized schedule of courses. Courses in the major are scheduled by cohort. 

Although faculty and staff advisors attempt to provide the best available information, the students are ultimately responsible for course selection and construction of their program. It is the students’ responsibility to see that program requirements are met and that the courses for the intended area of concentration are taken in proper sequence.
