The individual degree program Status Sheet is an important tool. A Status Sheet specifically outlines the graduation requirements for each degree program. The Status Sheet also shows all classes the student has completed, the grade received for each class, and any classes currently in progress. Understanding its usefulness is fundamental to planning and ensuring an orderly process of studies. The student’s Status Sheet is available online at MyCampus under the “Academics” tab.

Course registration is done through your MyCampus Student Portal. Here are the steps!

• Sign In to MyCampus Student Portal.
• On the top right-hand side, there is a toolbar; click the register drop box.
• Click register for classes.
• Find the course(s) you want to register for and click on the course name to add it to your "cart".
• Click on the "register for these classes" button and follow the prompts to finish registration.

Your degree program is structured into different levels; Undergraduate students have classes ranging from 1000 level courses to 4000 level courses. Graduate students have courses ranging from 5000 to 7000 level courses. We recommend that students take their courses in this sequence, starting with the lower-level course and continuing to the higher-level courses. Each level is designed to build upon the knowledge and skills gained in the previous one, providing a strong academic foundation for advanced study. For Doctoral students please refer to your program coordinator for course requirments and course sequence. 

Yes, you can drop your course(s) or change your course(s) after you have completed your registration. This can be done up to and through the first week of classes. However, dropping a course as a financial aid student may have a negative impact on your eligibility. Before dropping any courses, please contact the Financial Aid Office, financialaid@lutherrice.edu or 770.484.1204 ext. 5755. Also, please make sure you are aware of our refund policy by clicking Refund Policy or contact our Student Accounts Office, studentaccounts@lutherrice.edu or 770.484.1204 ext. 5286.

Your books are typically available for purchase 30 days prior to the start of a given semester. Once you have been notified by Luther Rice that our bookstore is open, you may then log into MyCampus and order your books. To order your books through MyCampus, you will need to select the “Register” tab in the menu bar and select “Order Books” in the drop-down box. That will take you to the 3rd party system we use, and it should populate the course(s) you’re registered for, and the books required for those course(s).

Online classes at Luther Rice are fully online and follow a weekly schedule over 15-weeks in the Fall and Spring semesters and 11-weeks in the Summer semesters. Each Monday, weekly assignments become available and are due by Sunday at 11:59 p.m. EST. This schedule continues throughout the semester. Because courses are asynchronous, you can complete your work at times that best fit your schedule, as long as all assignments are submitted by the weekly deadline.

You can access your online courses by logging into MyCampus and selecting “Moodle” under the “Single Sign-On” section on the home page. Moodle is the online Learning Management system we utilize to deliver your course content and for you to submit your assignments.

In cases like this, please contact your professor, as they are the best point of contact for issues regarding your individual courses. Our professors love to hear from you and are more than happy to help you however they can! Please do not hesitate to contact them if you have issues or questions!

It is your responsibility to check your status sheet and verify which required courses remain in your respective course of study. In the event you are on track to complete your program by the end of the Spring Semester, you must apply for graduation by November for graduation in May. The graduation application and specifics are available on our website on the Registrar's Office Page. Graduation fees are non-refundable, so please be realistic when you are scheduling and planning.
