  • Once you have weighed up all the options, email your academic 顾问 your commitment. Your 顾问 then emails the the approved class 信息 (course title, 教学机构名称, start 和 end date selected) to Glynis Bradfield博士 in the 学院的 远程教育.
  • If the class is offered by another department, that department chair will be contacted by Bradfield博士 if this or a similar class has not been previously approved.
