Fall 2024 class schedule changes

Queued registration for fall 2024 begins Thursday, April 11, 2024. To ensure students have the greatest success, please make sure to finalize the following information in the class schedule prior to registration:

• Confirm that session dates are set to the most reflective session.
• For reference, you can view session dates by term.
• If choosing a set number of credits for a variable credit class, make those changes before students register by emailing ocmsched@umn.edu.
• Confirm grading basis. If changes need to be made, submit changes through Coursedog.
• All date, day, and time changes should be made before students register to minimize student conflicts.

If any of the above information needs to be changed after students have registered, email ocmsched@umn.edu to determine if changes may still be made.

Working with session dates/codes

Sessions are a range of dates that define when classes are held during the academic term. Most classes during a term are held during the “Regular Academic Session,” which means it starts on the first day of class and ends on the last day of classes. However, there are additional sessions per term, and it is very important that a class be updated anytime the regular session dates do not align with when the class will be meeting.

Sessions are updated in the UM CSS Maintain Sched of Class page, on the basic data tab, by clicking on the lookup next to the sessions field and choosing the session that most closely aligns with when the class is being held:

Why is having your class in the correct session important? Session codes/dates affect:

• financial aid eligibility
• late registration fees
• refunds
• add/drop dates
• grade rosters
• and more

Also, once students have enrolled in a class, the session can no longer be adjusted, so having it set up correctly before students enroll is very important.

For more information on Session codes please read: Working with Session Codes. OCM maintains a list of session codes/dates per term.
