Registering for Core Courses
You are able to register for all of your core courses via Bear Tracks. We will send an email prior to the start of each term reminding you of the core course that will be offered in that term. If for any reason you are unable to take a course please advise the MACT office right away.
Your Responsibility to Maintain Your Registration Status
If you are taking a break from core courses, or you have completed all but your Capstone project course (COMM 900), please remember that you are required to take a minimum of one 3-credit course each year (between September and August) to maintain your status as an active course-based student. Failure to do so will result in the discontinuation of your program. It is the responsibility of the student to monitor and manage their program of study. More information is available about maintaining registration.
