New Student Registration
As a first-time student at Central Texas College, you are expected to participate in the new student registration process. This process includes academic advising, schedule planning, registration, orientation, a discussion of the TSI program and its requirements and referral to other specialized services, such as the offices of Student Financial Assistance and Veterans Services.
Registration for Career and Technology Education (CATE) Programs
Registration for the CATE Center competency-based, open-entry programs is continuous. Students may enroll any time, except during Spring Break, Christmas Holidays and other official Central Texas College holidays. Currently web registration is not available for the competency-based, open-entry programs. Students must contact a CATE Center advisor at the Sid M. Weiser CATE Center (Building 253E, Room 4, (254) 526-1549 or cate.center@ctcd.edu) to start the registration process.
Late Registration and Adding or Dropping Classes
Late registering, adding, or dropping classes is available for a limited time after classes begin. Consult local class schedules for exact dates. During the official add/drop period, you may add a class prior to the second scheduled class meeting. Students who complete registration after classes begin are not excused from meeting attendance or academic requirements and must arrange with the instructor to make up missed classes. Registering late does not guarantee you will be able to make up or extend the due date for missed and upcoming assignments. Students requesting late enrollment in online courses are responsible for communicating with their instructor regarding any missed assignments for the courses.
If you are a financial aid student, you should contact the Office of Student Financial Assistance prior to making a schedule change. It is your responsibility to contact a financial aid advisor prior to dropping a course.
Students using Veterans education benefits must have schedule changes approved at the CTC Veteran Services Office. Students are required to submit a new Veterans Enrollment Certificate (VEC) to the CTC Veteran Services office when “adding” a new course.
Withdrawal or Early Dismissal from School – Students using Veterans education benefits could be in debt to the Veteran Administration for withdrawal or early dismissal from school.
