Do I Have To Select Start Dates For All Of My Courses?

Monique Staats Updated by Monique Staats

No, you are not required to select start dates for all of your courses upon enrollment. You should select dates for at least a few courses to get started, but you are not required to select dates for any more courses than you want to. Given the fast-paced nature of our courses, we recommend taking only one course at a time.

Once you select a start date, however, please make note of both the start and end date. If these do not work for you, be sure to adjust your schedule no later than Day 3 of the course (the first Friday) by 5pm ET.

If you do not transfer out of your course within the transfer window, and do not complete the course requirements before the course end, you will need to schedule a course retake and your original course will be marked Incomplete. Course retakes may incur a re-enrollment fee.

How do I select my start dates?
You can create your own schedule through your Student Portal. See here for instructions.
How can I adjust my schedule?
As long as the course has not yet started, you can self-transfer your courses through your Student Portal. See here for instructions.
I missed a class! What do I do?
If you aren't able to complete all the requirements within the course window, you will need to take the course again if you wish to complete your program. See here here for more information.
