NO! You do not pay tuition at the time of registration! Tuition is due the next semester. If you receive financial aid, your aid will be dispersed before tuition is due!
NO! Decisions about which classes to offer, how many sections, and which classes to cancel are based on registration AND completion of your degree planner. If you wait, the classes you need might get cancelled! Joining waitlists let's CI know more course sections are needed. Registering is like voting for the classes you want on the schedule!
NO! If you register for anything over six (6) units costs the same in tuition. You pay the same whether you register for 7, 10, or 20 units. The more units you take, the more you get for your money!
Completing your Degree Planner helps you build your schedule and track progress toward graduation. Degree Planner also informs decisions about how many sections of a course to offer. Filing in your degree planner helps CSUCI know which classes are needed! For more helpful videos visit the Degree Planner Help Page.
