SHORT COURSE REGISTRATION
You may register for any short course prior to the first
day of class, or until the class fills, whichever occurs first.
Short course registration can be completed through
WebSMART. To register on the first day of the course, you
must obtain an Authorization Code from the instructor
and use it immediately through WebSMART. Pay close
attention to the registration instructions when using an
Authorization Code.
Note: Refund deadlines for short courses differ from
term-length courses and are often the first day of class.
For details, check your Class Schedule Summary in
WebSMART, review the “Refund Policy” on page 19 and/
or contact the Cashier’s Office or Admissions and
Records.
LATE REGISTRATION
If you are unable to register before the first day of class,
you may register during the Late Registration period, with
the use of a four-digit Authorization Code . (See Late
Registration dates on page 6.) An Authorization Code
allows a student to add a class after it has started. To
activate the code, follow the registration steps detailed
in WebSMART. Please read the instructions very carefully,
as there are extra steps involved when using an Author-
ization Code.
VARIABLE UNITS
Some courses are offered for variable units, which are
earned according to the amount of subject matter the stu-
dent completes during the length of the course. Students
can select the number of units they intend to complete at
the time of registration, through WebSMART. There are
no refunds for units not earned. Students earning addi-
tional units will be charged accordingly.
GRADE “TYPE” OPTIONS
Some courses are limited to a single type of grading
method and some may have grading options, such as
“Letter Grade” or “Pass/No Pass.” Students are required to
make their grade-type selection at the time of registration
through WebSMART and may change their option during
the first 20% of the class period. Exact deadline dates can
be obtained from your instructor or through WebSMART.
Note: A grade of “P” is equivalent to earning a
passing grade, such as “A, B or C”; a grade of “NP” is
equivalent to a substandard grade of “D or F”. Please be
aware of degree, certificate and transfer requirements
when selecting the Pass/No Pass option.
