Registrar Posts Schedule of Classes for Fall 2009

Despite the fact that midterms are not yet over for all GW students, it is already time to start thinking about courses for next fall: this week, the GW registrar announced that it had uploaded the schedule of classes for next semester, which can be viewed at the registrar’s website at my.gwu.edu/mod/pws/.

With the announcement about the schedule came news that English 081, a course on creative writing, would no longer fulfill a Writing in the Disciplines requirement, one of the many General Course Requirements at GW. Two WID courses must be taken in order to satisfy that particular GCR; a list of GCR’s and the classes that fulfill them can be located at the GW First Class website, which can be accessed through blackboard.

Registration for the fall semester is set to begin March 30, starting with graduate students, and continuing from March 31 through April 7 with all degree-seeking undergraduate students; registration order is determined by a seniority system based on accumulated credits, and this information can also be found at the registrar’s website. Registration opens on these days at 7am and remains open until 8pm.

After April 7, general registration will open up, during which all degree-seeking students can change their schedules if need be. General registration lasts until August 30, after which students who have yet to register for classes can do so late for an $80 charge.
