Fall 2008 Registration Reminders
Important Notice Regarding Fall 2008 Courses
Students may add courses anytime during the registration period as listed for each Block below:
Registration for Block 1 and Block 2 courses: July 14 - September 8, 2008
Registration for Block 3 courses: July 14 - October 29, 2008
Effective with the Fall 2008 Registration period, courses cannot be added after the last scheduled registration date for each Block. This means that students can no longer register for classes late. Students should meet with their advisors and carefully plan their schedules for Fall 2008 before the registration period ends.
Farewell Touchtone Registration
The Fall 2008 registration period is the last time that the Touchtone registration system will be used at Governors State University. All future registration will need to be completed online. Please keep this in mind when planning to register for future terms.
Good luck on your Spring/Summer 2008 courses. Register now for Fall 2008!
Eligibility
The following students (who have no outstanding financial, academic or administrative holds) are eligible to register:
- Newly Admitted
- Readmitted

Registration Priority
See Schedule below.
- Only degree-seeking students are eligible to register during the first week of registration.
- Students who are closer to graduation, based on the number of credits earned at GSU, have first registration priority.
- Newly admitted and readmitted degree-seeking students, non-degree, and undeclared students may register during the subsequent week of registration.
- Students may register during their assigned time or at any subsequent time during the registration period. Early registration is encouraged for if you wait until the last minute, a class may be closed, or in some cases, cancelled due to low enrollment.
