11. Your bill will now appear. Make sure it is for the correct amount. You may pay it online if you wish, or you may simply close the window and wait for a paper copy of the bill

• Be sure you know your Banner ID (look on your ID card or email Meghan Mehta, APO (mmehta1@gc.cuny.edu)) and check Student Web to see if you have any holds. If you have an academic hold, please contact Professor Steve Kruger (skruger@gc.cuny.edu). (Please put "satisfactory progress" in the subject line.) If you have a bursar or library hold, settle your bill as soon as you can with them directly.
• If you are taking courses, before you register, have several classes in mind that you would possibly want to take. That way, if you are shut out of a course, you have backups. You'll be able to register for a maximum of 16 credits worth of courses and a minimum of 7 credits (the minimum required to maintain full time status). Remember, you will still be able to add and drop during the add/drop period.
• The English Program has chosen not to issue advisement PINs to all students. You are also not required to meet with the Executive Officer for advisement. If you would like advice, feel free to make an appointment with Professor Kruger or any other faculty member.
• THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT - Pay particular attention to the credit value you are registering for. If you want to take a class for 4 credits, YOU MUST enter that value. The credit is automatically set 2 credits unless manually changed.
• If you take a 3 credit courses in another department, you may choose to sign up for a one-credit supplement through an ENGL 81000 course taught by Steven Kruger. (This is optional - if you are a Level 1 student trying to keep your tuition at a minimum you may choose to forgo it.) Meghan Mehta, APO, will need to do an override so that you can register for it - just email the mmehta1@gc.cuny.edu; the clearance will be given ASAP. If you drop your 3 credit class, you must also remember to drop this supplement.
• If you want to take a consortium class, try to contact the professor or at least the department to make sure the class is open to you. Do not worry about registering for those classes during the first few weeks of registration.

1. If you are not registering for any courses at all, Register on Record and for 7 Billable WIUs. BE SURE TO REGISTER FOR BOTH.
2. If you are registering to audit classes only, register for the classes as an audit and register for 7 billable WIU.
3. If you are registering for one class for credit (and any amount of auditing - zero classes or up to 4), please then also register for an amount of billable WIUs that will bring you up to full-time status (i.e., 7 credits). So if you're registering for one 4 credit class, you should also register for 3 Billable WIUs. If you're registering for one 2 credit class, you should also register for 5 Billable WIUs.

1. Register as a Level 2 student (see above).
2. Once you pass your orals or language exam (or both) and have fulfilled all other requirements to become Level 3, ask the APO for an "Advancement to Candidacy" form. You'll fill it out and return it to Meghan Mehta, APO
3. Simultaneously, drop your ROR "course" and your 7 Billable WIUs, and add ENGL 90000 "Dissertation Supervision" with your advisor's name in the Instructor column. Locate the CRN of your dissertation director by using the Class Schedule Search.

• If you are going to register as a Level 3 student for the first time, email Meghan Mehta (mmehta1@gc.cuny.edu) with the name of your advisor so she can do an override.
• It is not necesary for a Level 3 student to register for WIU. Level 3 students who register for Dissertation Supervision are considered full-time students.
