Registration is the process of enrolling in classes. Dates
for classes are announced in both the printed and online
quarterly Class Schedules. Course updates are distributed
frequently to campus staff.
HOW TO REGISTER
New students seeking a degree or certificate make an
appointment with staff advisers to complete registration
forms and learn about online registration. Continuing
students register online or complete registration forms
with the assistance of a faculty adviser or counselor.
There are a number of ways to register for classes. See the
current Class Schedule for all options.
PLEASE NOTE: LWIT registration procedure allows you
to register for one section of a course. If you register for
more than one section of a course, the college will drop
you from all sections except the most recent registration
transaction. The college will notify you by email after
making schedule changes.
Also see the Programs of Study section for information
about program start dates. These are subject to change.
FULL-TIME STATUS
The college considers students to be full-time if they are
registered in 12 or more credits.
CURRENTLY ENROLLED DEGREE- AND
CERTIFICATE-SEEKING STUDENTS
1. Meet with a faculty adviser to review courses for
next quarter.
2. Register for courses (students may register for most
courses by Web, mail, or in person). See the Class Schedule
or Enrollment Services for methods of registration.
3. Students pay tuition and fees via the Web, at the
Cashier’s Office, or other modes offered by the college.
Textbook and supply costs are in addition to tuition.
To register online, go to
www.lwtech.edu/studenttoolbox. A Student
Identification Number (SID) and a personal identification
number (PIN) are required. For registration, this number is
the student’s date of birth until the PIN is changed by the
student. Online registration may not be available for all
students or classes. See Enrollment Services for details.
To register in person, go to Enrollment Services during
business hours which are published in each quarter’s
Class Schedule.
CHANGE OF REGISTRATION (ADD/DROP)
Students must add or drop courses on the Web, or
at Enrollment Services to make the change official.
A refund will occur only when a student officially
withdraws or drops within the refund period. See
page 161 for refund policy.
LATE ADDS
Courses added after the third day of the quarter require
instructor approval. Adding courses after the 10th day of
the quarter requires payment of a $50 late registration
fee and may require special petitions.
PAYMENTS
The quarterly Class Schedule lists fee payment
requirements. Tuition and fees are due by the first day
of the quarter. Students who have not paid tuition and
fees or made the first payment of the Student Payment
Plan may be dropped from their classes after the fifth day
of the quarter. Students who owe tuition and fees will
not be able to register for future quarters, receive official
transcripts, or graduate until their account has been paid.
WAITING LISTS
If a class is full, students have the option to be put on
a waiting list. This list automatically adds students to
openings as they appear prior to the first day of each
quarter. Students should check online, with Enrollment
Services, or with the course instructor during the first
week of classes to see if they are enrolled in the class.
Students should remove themselves from the waiting list
if they decide not to enroll in the class. See details in the
Class Schedule.
PLEASE NOTE: You may not register for a course
(example: ENGL& 101 item # XXXA) and hold a place
on the wait list for another section of the same course
(ENGL& 101 item # XXXB).
