Option 3 - Register Using Student Information System Terminals

You will need a Personal Identification Number (PIN) to be able to register the Student Information System terminals. The PIN is a security check to guard against unauthorized access to your records by another individual. Initially the PIN will consist of the last four digits of your Social Security or EAC ID number but it can be changed to any number desired in the range of 1000-9999. Changes can be made using the Student Information System terminals. Be sure to use only four numbers -- letters of the alphabet will not work. You may change your PIN as often as you like.

Computer terminals located on the Thatcher campus in the lobby of the Student Services Building, the Alumni Library Media Center and the Wellness allow "serve yourself" registration. These terminals can be used to register, check to see if a class is open or closed and see how many seats remain, add or drop a class, print out your grades, and change your PIN. You can also change your name, address, phone, marital status, and disability information in the College's records. To register using a Student Information System terminal you need to first establish a student record at the College.

Step-by-step instructions are provided on screen. Personnel are on hand to help you, if needed. Look for "Advance Team" students in the Student Services Building lobby who will be happy to demonstrate the services the terminals provide.
