Lookup Classes: Selection Fields |
|
- Once you select Lookup Classes (from the Registration Tools channel or elsewhere), you should see the Select Term screen. Select the term you want from the drop-down box and click the [Submit] button.
- You should now see the Look Up Classes selection screen, the screen on which you enter your search criteria (Subject, Course Number, Title, Instructional Method, etc.).
Note:
You must select at least one Subject for a successful search; you may select all or several subjects if you wish. All other search selections are optional, but they are useful in narrowing your search.
- When you have selected all the search options you want, click the [Class Search] button at the bottom of the screen.
Refer to this table for information regarding Look Up Classes' selection fields. | Subject | | | | Course Number | - Leave this blank unless you are searching for a particular course. Example: You are interested in ENGL 2010, so you select "ENGL" for Subject and enter "2010" here.
- You can use this field to search for a particular number-level within a Subject or Subjects. Enter the first digit of the level followed by the per cent sign (%). Example: "3%" will return a list of 3000-level courses only.
| | Title | - Enter a key word you expect to be in the course title. Example: "Anatomy"
| | Instructional Method | - This the method in which the course is delivered.
- All = all methods. This is the default. Ususally you will not want to change this.
- However, this is a useful option is in locating web-delivered courses only.
| | Credit Range | - Generally it is best to leave this field blank.
- If you do use it, it is best to fill in the first number only. This is useful in finding a 1-hour or 2-hour course you might need to bring your status up from part-time to full-time.
| | Campus | - The location at which the class is being offered.
- All = All Locations, including the Main Campus.
- The 3-character code at end of the Campus name is used in Look Up Classes results to identify the Campus (CMP column).
- It is possible to exclude the Main Campus and list only courses offered at satellite campuses.
| | Course Level | - This is most useful for restricting your results to Undergraduate courses only or Graduate courses only, though other options are available.
| | Part of Term | - All = All Parts of Term.
- An academic term (semester) consists of several Parts of Term. You may enroll in multiple Parts of Term. (However, the Law Term is restricted to Law students.)
- A Fall or Spring term (semester) consists of these Parts of Term: Full Term, Regents Term, First Half-Term, Second Half-Term, and Law Term.
- A Summer term consists of these Parts of Term: Pre Summer Term, Full Term, Regents Term, First Half-Term, Second Half-Term, First Teacher Term, and Second Teacher Term.
- Full and Regents terms run the entire semester.
- A course taken in one term is the equivalent of the same course taken in another term. Example: Full Term ENGL 1010 = First Half-Term ENGL 1010 (or Pre Summer, or Regents, etc.)
- Note: The pre-Spectrum term for Part of Term was "Session."
- This option is useful in narrowing your selection to the courses offered in a particular Part of Term. (Example: You want a list of HIST courses offered in Second Half-Term only.)
| | Instructor | - The instructor(s) of record, if available.
- All = All Instructors.
- You can select multiple Instructors in your search.
| | Attribute Type | - Use this to search for courses that satisfy particular General Education (Gen Ed) requirements.
- Note: Some colleges require that you take particular courses to satisfy Gen Ed requirements (ex., the college may insist on a BIOL sequence). Check with your advisor before selecting a Gen Ed course.

Days | - Use these options to find courses that will fit around your work schedule or other commitments.
