Familiarize yourself with the degree requirements for the Honors College and your current major before your advisement appointments.  Failure to know your degree requirements may prevent you from graduating on time. 

The Master Schedule of courses will be available at http://registrar.sc.edu. Before your advisement appointments it is recommended that you make a list of all the major courses you think you will take (all sections) and bring this list with you for your Honors advisement appointment. It will help us avoid conflicts created by scheduling an Honors course at the same time you will be taking a course required in your major.

Advisement forms: You will receive an advisement form from the Honors College and your major advisor will give you a USC Advisement Form. The two advisement forms gives the approval of your advisors on your schedule. Without this approval, you will not be able to register for your classes through VIP. NOTE: Don't forget to ask for your copy of the USC Advisement Form from your major advisor and ask your advisor who should submit a copy to the Dean's office or student services office in your major college. Some departments do it for you; others ask you to do it. If no one does it, you won't be cleared for registration.

Registration appointment time, which is different from your Advisement appointment, can be found on VIP under the Academic tab.  You will not be able to register for non-honors courses until this day/time.

Shopping Period - During Shopping Period all unclaimed seats and open Honors courses will be available to add via VIP. All adjustments to your Honors schedule should be made during this time. After Shopping Period, you can continue to drop Honors courses via VIP, but you must contact the College to add a course. The dates for Shopping Period will be published under the Advisement section of News Items on the Honors College Homepage.
