Student Guide to Self Service

Home Tab

On the Self-Service Home Page various tasks are categorized by tabs that students can access and perform on

their own. The Home tab is open by default when a student opens Self-Service.

Register Tab

Tab has two options to choose from: “Cart” or “Traditional Courses”

Click on “Cart” if you want to view or add courses to your shopping cart

Obviously accessing Self-Service for the first time there’s nothing to view. Let’s look at our choices for finding courses

Click “Traditional Courses” to select a Period, open your cart, and begin the registration process.

We can find courses using a Basic ‘Section Search’ by entering Keywords, Course Code, Period, or Session

Let’s assume the program director advises you to register for 3 courses this term providing you with

the course codes to assure an easy search. CIS101 ENG101 PSY111 We can start by entering the

first one, CIS101 into the Course Code box. (see above)

We could’ve selected the Advanced Search tab to enter additional filter criteria to our search but

sincethe advisor provided the Course Code we’ll use the Basic search so skip over the Advanced

Search on the next page for now and look at the results of our first Basic Search for courses.

Note: We could’ve selected the Advanced Search tab to enter additional filter criteria to our search

but sincethe advisor provided the Course Code we’ll use the basic search so skip over this page for

now to see the results of our first Basic Search for courses.

Filtering and Sorting Results– when your Search Results are returned, you can use the Options appearing in the menu

on the left to filter and sort the results of your search. Choose the course you want to register for and click the Add button

to add it to your shopping cart. (see below)
