Whether you've already chosen a major or are still considering your options, the next step in your journey to Cedarville is to complete the Major Selection Checkpoint.
As a new transfer or a freshman, the major you choose will impact the classes you take in fall semester. Class schedules for all new students are developed this summer through the Office of the Registrar.
Freshmen
- Schedules are developed during the summer using a specially-designed computer process.
- Essential major courses will be included in the schedule that is prepared for you.
- Schedules will take into account any Advanced Placement or transfer credit for which you are eligible; make sure to provide official copies of score reports or college transcripts (see Checkpoint #7).
- You will have the opportunity to meet with your academic advisor before classes begin in August to discuss your class schedule and make changes, if desired. If you're contemplating a second major and/or additional minor, you can talk with your advisor at this time, too.
Transfer Students
- Please provide official copies of your final transcripts.
- Watch for communication from Karisa Linafelter in the Office of the Registrar regarding your registration process.
- If you have any questions or need information, contact Karisa at 1-800-CEDARVILLE (233-2784).
