How to Register

In order to register for an ICX course, students must fill out the ICX registration form.  The form must be signed by the student's advisor or graduate coordinator, by the department chair or appropriate person.  The form is sent to the host campus and is signed by the department chair and instructor of the course. If there are seats available, the student will be enrolled.  A shadow course will be created on the student’s home campus allowing the credit to be added to the student’s transcript.  The UMass registrars will ensure that proper credits are given to the student and that no charges incur from the host campus.
