TRIAL COURSE SELECTION FOR ENTERING STUDENTS

July 20th - August 7th

Congratulations on your decision to enroll at Smith College. We look forward to meeting you in September and are very excited to offer you the opportunity to participate in a trial course selection process. We hope that this exercise will help familiarize you with our registration policies and procedures while providing useful information to your adviser about your academic interests. Since you will be registering on your own after meeting with your adviser in September, it is particilarly important that you have some practice with the system to ensure that your official registration proceeds as smoothly as possible at that time.

The process is outlined below and the next few pages will explain in more detail the steps you need to follow to enter your course preferences for the fall semester online. 

  1. Read the "Preparing for Advising at Smith " section in the Welcome to Smith booklet and complete the curricular planning worksheet.
  2. Search for fall courses using the online catalogue and schedule of classes.
  3. Review information about departmental placement tests.
  4. Study our registration policies and procedures.
  5. Complete a trial registration worksheet for the fall semester.
  6. Enter your course preferences on BannerWeb.

It is important that you understand that this exercise is not official registration; it is simply an indication of your course preferences. Once you arrive in September, you will meet with your adviser and officially register for your courses.

As you work your way through the following pages, you will find some embedded links that will refer you to information posted elsewhere on our website.  You may need to use your browser's back button to return to these instructions.
