Registration/Enrollment Students can register for classes at the time they are assigned an enrollment appointment. Students may view their assigned enrollment appointment time online through ASU Interactive: http://www.asu.edu/interactive Students may also register for classes in person at the Registrar’s Office in the Student Services Building, Room 150. Degree Audit Report System (DARS) Students who want to find out what requirements they’ve completed toward graduation can print a DARS report from ASU Interactive: http://www.asu.edu/interactive (Click on “DARS Degree Audit”) Declaration of Graduation The Cronkite School notifies students at the time they must file a Declaration of Graduation (DOG). Students must set up an appointment to meet with their academic adviser to complete the DOG. Completing a DOG ensures that students understand all remaining degree requirements and helps them to plan remaining semesters effectively and efficiently. Financial Aid Questions concerning financial aid should be addressed to the Student Financial Assistance Office at 480.965.3355 or in the Student Services Building, Room 219.

Immunization Requirements All newly admitted students born after Dec. 31, 1956 must provide proof of measles/rubella immunity to the Student Health and Wellness Center. Students who haven’t submitted this proof already must do so immediately, as immunization records must be submitted and processed before class registration. Access their Web site for more information: http://www.asu.edu/admissions/steps/immunization.html Residency Classification Residency (tuition) status initially is determined by the Admissions Office at the time a student is admitted to ASU. Non-resident students who feel they may qualify for resident tuition status must file a petition for reclassification. For general information about the requirements, consult the ASU General Catalog or the Web at http://www.asu.edu/registrar/residency.
