Classes and Registration

Registering for Classes
All semester program students are responsible for registering for their own classes. But don't worry, we'll give you all the details on how to do that. By the end of March, you'll be receiving an email from our office with full instructions on registering for your spring semester classes. The email will include a list of all the classes you were approved for by your dean, as well as a registration "cheat sheet" that lists the CRN for each class and the process for entering everything into UIS. Please note that you'll also be responsible for registering for any online classes you plan to take, so don't forget about them! If you have any questions about the registration process, or if you don't receive a registration email, just call our office or email ogsregistration@stjohns.edu.

Making Changes to Your Registration
If you would like to make changes to your registration once you are abroad, you must complete a Registration Request Form. This form allows you to request academic approval to add, drop, withdraw or apply for the pass/fail option. If you are unsure of who your academic advisor is, please click  here.

Academic Calendar
The Academic Calendar for the Global Studies programs is different from the calendar for the New York campuses.  Please make sure you are using the Academic Calendar for our programs before making any travel plans for you or your family.


Refund Policy
The Office of Global Studies is always working to keep our program fees as low as possible.  One way we are able to do so is by making financial commitments for accommodation, meals, and other program related expenses well in advance of the program's start date.
 
We understand that plans, as well as personal situations, may change. We ask that you familiarize yourself with the  Refund Policy before making your deposit so that you are aware of the potential impact of withdrawing from the program prior to, or after the start of, the program.
