Enrollment for Spring 2020 Courses has Begun!

What to Do:

• If Environmental Science is your primary major, you will have an advising hold on your Spire account. This hold prevents you from enrolling in courses and can only be removed by your primary faculty advisor. To find out who your advisor is, or to find their contact information, click here for instructions. Since enrollment has already begun, it is important to make an appointment with your advisor now so you can ensure your hold will be removed before your enrollment appointment.
• To figure out what classes you should take next semester, check out the handouts on the Major Resources page. If you’re completing a minor in environmental science, visit the Minor Resources page. The handouts on these pages are helpful for understanding required courses, and provide an example of a typical course sequence, but there is a degree of flexibility in terms of when you can take these courses. Talking to your faculty advisor, or with a peer advisor is a plan started for what courses you should be enrolling in.
  • First and second year students… don’t fret if you don’t know what courses you want to take in your third and fourth years! The Career and Curriculum Planning Seminar (EnvirSci 294A) in the spring semester of your second year will guide you towards planning out the courses you will take in your third and fourth years.
• Add all of your desired classes to your Shopping Cart on Spire. Once you find an open course on Spire, hit the “select class” button, and follow the prompts to add the course to your Shopping Cart. Having all your classes in your Shopping Cart before your enrollment appointment allows you to quickly enroll in all your classes immediately once your appointment begins.
• Use the new Schedule Builder feature on Spire. This can be found on the Shopping Cart page of Spire, and helps show you all the potential schedules you can build with the classes you have selected.
