  • Before You Enroll - Book an Advising Appointment in Navigate (must be an accepted UWF student to access). New students should meet with their advisors to discuss program requirements and develop a course plan in DegreeWorks.
  • Non-degree-seeking students do not require an Advising Pin to enroll but are invited and strongly encouraged to meet or communicate with the program advisor regarding plans once a semester.
  • Holds can prevent registration. To view and resolve holds, follow the instructions provided for Viewing Holds.  Complete the end-of-course survey (SAI) to avoid a hold in between semesters.
  • Registering for Courses - step-by-step instructions on how to register for courses. Notice several other useful topics/pages listed on the left-hand navigation you may want to refer to.
  • Online GIS Course sections have unique attributes to help ensure students are enrolling in the proper section.  Sometimes we offer the same GIS course (prefix and title) both online and at Pensacola Campus so it's important to recognize the differences in course search results. In the screenshot below, the course search result for "GIS" returned two course sections.  The online GIS Certificate course section has 3 distinct differences highlighted in the red box. When in doubt, your advisor can provide the Course Reference Number (CRN) you should enroll in. 
  • Online GIS Certificate program students are required to register in Online Campus course sections.  Pensacola Campus students are expected to register in all Main (Pensacola) campus course sections.

  • Using the Classmate App to view your class schedule and detailed course info. Course syllabi will be linked here once the instructor uploads them (typically by the first week of class).
  • Dropping Courses - if needed, follow these instructions to drop your course during drop/add week.
  • Withdrawing after Drop/Add - see UWF Academic Course Calendar for dates. WR - partial refund. W - no refund issued. A grade of "W" will be assigned. A grade of "W" will not negatively impact your GPA or academic standing.  Sometimes it is the best option for students who have fallen behind in coursework. Consult with your instructor to discuss options and your advisor before deciding to withdraw from a course. There is info about the Medical Withdrawal Process on the page/link provided.
