Instructions How to Register for Certificate and Degree Courses

Overview 

This article explains how to register for certificate and degree courses and how to add more courses if the incorrect courses are listed.  

Instructions 

 

Step 1: Review your Degree Progress Audit 

  1. Go to Academics > Degree Progress Audit. 

  1. Select the certificate or degree you are working toward in the box next to View by Enrollment. 

  1. Review your Course List to see which courses you have completed with a passing grade. 

  1. Under Current Program, find your program version and catalog year. (You will need these in the next step!)

Step 2: Find your Program Plan 

  1. Go to the Academic Catalog at catalog.byupathway.edu.  

  1. Go to All Catalogs in the top menu. Select the catalog year from your degree progress audit. 

  1. Click Explore Degrees. Find your program version (e.g., “Applied Health [Bachelor]”).  

  1. Select your Program Plan at the top of your catalog page. Consider bookmarking, downloading, or printing it for easy access. 

 

Step 3: Use your Program Plan 

  1. A Program Plan shows the courses that are required for your degree and the order we suggest you take them in (because of prerequisites). 

  1. Use your Degree Progress Audit and unofficial transcript to identify which courses you have successfully completed. Note or mark these on your Program Plan. 

  1. Identify which courses you should take next. (For example, if you have completed all the courses in rows 1–12 of your Program Plan, you should take the courses in row 13 during Block 5, the courses in row 14 during Block 6, and so on.)

  1. Click the Register button. 

  1. Repeat this process for any additional courses you need (up to 4 courses max).
