ATTTENTION JUNIORS



It is time to register for Fall 2014 courses!

High School Registration Paperwork times:
April 7th- 11th from 1:00 – 3:00 p.m. each day.
Lee High School Media Center
Students do not need an appointment to complete the FSCJ Registration paperwork.

FSCJ Registration
April 15th
9:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m. at FSCJ

Please note the following information:
-         Review your course requirements and offered courses before coming to Lee to complete your Registration paperwork. The course schedule is available on the FSCJ website.
-          Have alternate courses in mind when you arrive at Lee and when you go to Kent campus for registration. There are only five seats available for Early College students. There are also limits on the number of seats in some courses. All seats are first come first serve.
-          Students are required to turn in their Degree Audit when they pick up their Registration paperwork. No degree audit = no registration paperwork.
-          Students are required to bring a copy of their FSCJ Fall schedule to Lee High School by April 23rd.
-          If taking a summer course or taking a course overload (5th course) was recommended during your Degree Audit, then you will complete this paperwork at the same time as you complete the Fall paperwork. Note: Summer courses and course overloads require special permission from DCPS. They are not guaranteed.
-          Picking up your Registration paperwork and participating in Registration are NOT excuses to miss class.
-          Students may take one online course per semester. A “hybrid” class is not considered an online course.
-          As the semester finishes, stay mindful of your eligibility requirements: high school unweighted GPA 3.0+, FSCJ GPA 2.0+, cannot earn two or more Ws/Ds/FNs/Fs in one semester.
