    Enter a call number for a class in one of the "add" sections of the action menu. If a discussion or laboratory section is required for enrollment in the desired course (a corequisite course), enter a call number for it as well, on a separate "add" line. Course status will show Enrolled.

    If the class has variable units, you will be presented with a box showing the minimum number of units available. Choose the units.

    Press "OK" now or after you have completed all enrollment activity.

    Be sure to plan for alternate sections and/or alternate courses before you begin your enrollment session, as you will be disconnected from the Web after 3 minutes of inactivity.

  1. Dropping a class

    Select "drop" from the action menu for that class. You must also drop associated laboratory or discussion sections when you drop a lecture section. Press "OK." Course status will show Dropped.
  2. Changing only a discussion or laboratory section

    To change a discussion or laboratory section of a course, select "change sec" from the action menu. Press "OK." You will be presented with a list of open sections. On that list, you may choose to select one of the sections or keep the section in which you are already enrolled. Press "OK."
  3. Adding a Waitlist section

    If you are enrolled in a laboratory or discussion section you may waitlist for one other section that is full. After you have completed your enrollment in the first section, return to the enrollment menu and enter the call number for the section you want to waitlist, choose "waitlist" from the action menu, and submit your request. Your course confirmation will reflect enrollment in the first section and waitlist status in the second.
  4. Dropping a Waitlist section

    If you change your mind about a waitlisted section, you must drop yourself from the list for that section. Otherwise, you will be placed in the waitlisted section if space is available.

Security

GROWL includes security elements to safeguard your personal information. However, you should also take certain precautions to make sure no one else can access your records.

  1. Keep your PERMPIN confidential. The PERMPIN is required to access your records.
  2. Set the cache (data that a Web browser records on a computer's hard disk to speed its display of information) of your Web browser to zero, so your information is not retained in the computer's memory, where it could be viewed by another user. Check your browser's preferences for information on how to set the cache to zero.
  3. If you did not set your cache to zero, be sure to clear (empty) the cache before you exit GROWL. Check your browser's preferences for information on how to clear the cache.
  4. Never leave your computer unattended while you are logged in. Someone could access your records while you are away from the computer. The system automatically disconnects if there is no activity for 10 minutes.
  5. Remember to exit the system when you are done by clicking on "Exit."
