Advising - Class Selection

It is ultimately the student's responsibility to keep track of his or her academic progress. Please use the tools below, in conjunction with Self-Service, to ensure that you are taking the right courses at the right time.

Use the Academic Progress Sheet, with IQ Web, to know what course you have taken and what courses you need to take. Make sure that you follow the guidelines in the Course Rotation schedule. Use the second tab to plan your future courses.

Plan your future courses with the Summer 2009 until Summer 2010 Course Schedules. Please pay attention to the course rotation. Make sure to note when a class will be offered again if you choose not to take it.

The above should be completed prior to selecting courses for the upcoming semester.

Graduation/Transfer Information

Students are eligible to graduate when they have completed all of the requirements for an associate's degree. Students can graduate in the summer, fall, or spring.

The Commencement Ceremony is held once a year in May. All graduates from the previous year (summer, fall, or spring) may participate. Students cannot participate unless they have completed the requirements by the date of commencement. Please do not confuse commencement with graduation.

The Commencement Ceremony is directed by the Office of Student Service. Students need to make sure to follow all of the directives of the Office of Student Services regarding Commencement. Generally, the Office of Student Services will begin to communicate with students during March to prepare for the May Ceremony.

Students will receive information through email, a Commencement Packet in the Mail, and the Commencement Section of the Trinity Website. Students need to make sure that they complete all of the tasks required to participate.
