Enrollment

Signing up for classes

New students

New students will sign up for CELCIS classes before taking placement tests. 

Returning students

Returning Student registration is scheduled mid-way through the previous semester. Students will be asked to complete an online Intent Form. This form lets CELCIS know student鈥檚 plans for the upcoming semester.

Students must resolve all holds.  Students will not be registered for classes until their holds have been cleared.

Part-time enrolled students

Students who wish to study in the 澳门六合彩官网直播 CELCIS program on an F-2 visa (dependent) are permitted to study as a part-time enrolled student. This means that an F-2 student is only permitted to take up to three class hours per day. Four class hours is considered full-time enrollment. A student who begins CELCIS as a part-time enrolled student, returns to his/her home country to apply for an F-1 visa, and resumes his/her studies on an F-1 visa (student), will be required to take the placement test the next semester before starting classes. 

RETAKING COMPLETED COURSES

A CELCIS student will be allowed to re-take a CELCIS class that the student has already passed ONLY IF by not taking the class, the student will be under-enrolled and consequently go out of status. Approval from the CELCIS chair and the CELCIS immigration advisor is required. In addition, the student will bear the cost of retaking the already-passed class. 

Mandatory Semesters

CELCIS at 澳门六合彩官网直播 is authorized under Federal law to enroll nonimmigrant students. As an SEVP approved school, all CELCIS students who have F-1 or J-1 status are required to enroll full-time during fall and spring semesters.

Summer Sessions

Summer I/summer II sessions are considered University break period for student enrollment. Students are not required to take CELCIS classes during the summer sessions. (This does not apply for new students whose first term of enrollment is summer). 

If you are receiving a financial scholarship by a sponsor, please follow their enrollment requirements for funding purposes. The CELCIS department recommends that students take summer semester classes. Taking long breaks may cause students to forget the English that they have learned.

NOTE: All students who study during the Summer I session will be required to also study in the Summer II session. 

If a new student receives a Summer I I-20, then by federal regulations, both summer sessions are mandatory enrollment periods (and the student will not be eligible for vacation until the summer session the following year).

New students have the option to begin in the Summer II term if they have a Summer II I-20.  Students who begin in Summer II will not be eligible for a vacation period until the summer session the following year. Returning students and Pathway students will not be allowed to register for only summer II classes.
