Background Information: The Curriculum
In developing your schedule you will need to understand the components of the College wide curriculum:
Major Requirements: These can be found in the Endicott College Catalog and on your major’s web page. (Your dean has registered you for the fall semester requirements.)
General Education Course Requirements: The general education courses are grouped into eight categories to provide an opportunity for you to explore a variety of disciplines within the liberal arts. Consult the Registrar’s page for a description of the categories and a complete listing of courses.

Free Electives: These are courses that may be of interest to you and have no prerequisites or restrictions.
Registration opens on Monday, July 18th and closes on Sunday, July 31st.

2. In selecting your courses, be sure to consult the advising sheet and any special instructions that you received from your Dean during Orientation.
3. From the Course of Study, choose a section of ENG111 Critical Reading and Writing I, a course that is required of all freshmen. You may choose any section in a timeslot that works for you*.
4. In some majors you may include general education courses and/or free electives in your fall schedule. Consult the advising sheet to see if this is possible. We recommend taking courses at the 100 or 200 level only. If you decide to take a math class, check the advising sheet to see if a specific class, such as “statistics,” is recommended.
5. You are now ready to register.
*Note: Students in the Endicott Scholars Honors Program should not enroll in ENG111. HON100 Honors Seminar I will substitute for ENG111.
Registering for Classes
1. You have been randomly assigned to a registration session. You may register on or after the assigned time. Select “Student Registration” to find your registration date and time.
2. In order to register, click on “Student Registration.”
3. Follow the directions on the “Registration Entry” page to enter the courses you would like to take. (NOTE: You must enter a space before the number for a course with a two- letter prefix.
Example: SP 101. A course with a three- letter prefix does not require a space before the number. Example: PSY100)
