Registration Tips
Summer Courses
Taking courses outside of GVSU over the summer? Review this document for a step-by-step process and important information to consider.
If you are taking a course in the summer at another school, and that course is a pre-requisite for a course you want to take at GVSU, you will need to submit a registration override request form to sign up.
Example 1: If you are taking BMS 250 over the summer and you want to take BMS 251 at GVSU, you will need to submit an override request form before being able to register for BMS 251
"NUR" Courses
You cannot schedule any "NUR" courses unless you are officially admitted into the program.
We strongly encourage you to meet with your academic advisor to talk about a backup plan that you can schedule in the meantime.
Once admitted into the nursing program, you will receive assistance from your advisor with registration.
