What Courses Do I Take Next Year?

It always a challenge to pick out courses. Your adviser helps you with the required ones and the graduating on time thing. However, then there's those electives. There are so many! If you have lots of interest, it can be quite a challenge to decide which of the 8 courses your interested in to take in the one time slot you have available. So here's how it works: First, you meet with your adviser, and they tell you which courses you NEED to take to graduate. They also will provide you with information about future careers, internships, and all those good things. They'll let you know which courses you get to choose, and some good choices for those electives. Finally, your adviser gives you your pin number. On registration day, you log on to myIIT and go to the academics tab where you can enter your pin and register. You need to have your bill paid and no holds on your account to register though, so make sure to check that a few weeks before registration begins. Your first semester you'll do this whole process with your academic adviser during orientation, so everyone knows how it goes when they get here!

As I was completing my registration this year, I realized I only have one more undergraduate registration left! Graduation is starting to sneak up on me...

I began researching graduate schools shortly after this realization. I guess I'm taking the GRE this summer.
