12. Degree seeking students will now…  Be admitted to host campus through paper application (no application fee will be assessed)  Register using host campus software program (VandalWeb for WSU students, and ZZUSIS for UI students)  Be allowed to register after May 1  Be responsible for another email address  Pay special course and lab fees to host institution  Have pre-requisites checked by host institution 12

13. Co-op Courses will still…  Count for full-time enrollment status at home institution  Be considered as part of full-time tuition and fees Website designed to guide students and advisors through the process will be live Monday www.uidaho.edu/registrar/coop 13

14. Encourage students to have pre-requisites checked early so they don’t encounter registration problems  WSU is checking pre-reqs for the first time. Be patient. Remind students to check their new WSU email account  All co-op course correspondence will be sent to WSU email address 14

16. What math should students take? 16

17. Math 160 is not the pre-requisite for Math 170. Students should not automatically enroll in the HIGHEST math course available based on their exam scores.  Many courses are terminal  May not provide prerequisite preparation for other courses Double majors should select a math course appropriate for both degree programs. Students should complete the Math, Stat, and Computer Science requirement during the first year. 17

18. Overrides are given only to students who satisfy the pre-requisites by: 1.Completing prerequisite course 2.Having sufficient exam scores A student can challenge exam scores with a COMPASS Math Test. Students who believe they would test into a course higher than Math 170 will need to contact the mathematics main office for evaluation. 18

19. English 101 + 095  Students who test out of 095 during the first week of 101 must drop the course online. No student is automatically dropped. Chemistry 253  Quantitative Analysis should be taken in a student’s sophomore year – not later. Many seniors are struggling in this course because they’ve forgotten fundamental chemistry. 19
