WebCT Instructions for
Computer Science Graduate Students


Background

The Graduate College and Graduate Registrar at UNI now process all administrative forms such as programs of study and student requests on-line, using WebCT. The student will use the WebCT site to initiate some action, and the appropriate administrative person, such as the graduate coordinator or department head, is then notified by e-mail. All approvals are done using WebCT as well.

This page intends to help you get started with this process. If you have any questions, concerns, or problems, please contact me.
