A significant part of Summit Orientation Phase One will be devoted to planning your schedule and registering for classes.
Before you arrive for Summit you should spend some time planning your schedule. This is not always a simple task, so allow plenty of time to read over the information below and create your schedule, and make sure you have a list of back-up courses for your first three courses. You will be assigned an advisor for the day to look over your planned schedule, but your session will be more successful if you plan ahead. Below you will find some information and links to assist you in schedule planning.

Step 1: |
UNC Asheville's core curriculum, required for all students , is called the Integrative Liberal Studies (ILS). Please read through the information linked to this page before you attend your advising session at Summit. |
|
|
Step II: |
Review the freshman LSIC 179 courses offered, and indicate your top 8 choices when you RSVP for Summit. |
|
|
Step III: |
Identify the class or classes that you need in the first semester if you have identified a major area of interest. |
|
|
Step IV: |
Continue selecting classes that fulfill ILS requirements, courses for your major, and/or courses that interest you until you have at least seven possible courses chosen. It is probably wise to go ahead and have additional courses listed in rank-order. |
If you took French, Spanish, or Latin in high school, you should take the Foreign Language Placement test at Summit. This test is not mandatory but it is to your advantage to take if you plan to continue in the same language taken in high school to fulfill the foreign language requirement.

| Step V: | When you attend Summit you will begin registering for classes, and this process will continue after Summit. Freshmen should plan to take around 15 semester hours. |
Information about Logging On to Register Note: In order to insure that students attending each phase of Summit registration have similar choices in course selections all new students: (1) will register for two additional courses (up to a total of 11 semester hours, in addition to your LSIC course) during the Summit Phase One sessions, and (2) class enrollments will be set to lower limits for the June 13th Summit session and increased gradually for each subsequent session, i.e., Lang 120 classes may have enrollment limits of 5 students on June 13th, 10 students on June 16th, 15 students on June 20th, and so on.
