PLEASE CHECK BACK IN EARLY OCTOBER FOR UPDATED INFORMATION ABOUT J TERM 2014.

J Term Enrollment Process For SMU Students

Please note that J Term 2013 courses are not initially available for registration through Access.SMU. There is a special J Term enrollment process and application form which should be completed prior to Thanksgiving. Please follow these steps:

1. You should first meet with your advisor to select your preferred J Term course and up to two (2) alternates. Then, complete the J Term application form where you will be asked to list up to three (3) courses in priority order. Some courses may be cancelled due to insufficient enrollment or for other reasons, thus the need for you to identify up to three choices; if you don't have other course options, leave blank.
   
   
2. The J Term application form should be submitted electronically or using the PDF version of the form. For best consideration, submit your application no later than 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday, November 21, 2012 (before Thanksgiving). After this date, late applications will still be considered although some courses will not be available or may have been cancelled due to insufficient enrollment.
   
   
3. PDF/paper application forms may be dropped off to the University Registrar Service Center on the first floor of Blanton or taken upstairs to the Taos/J Term office on the third floor of Blanton (Room 338), faxed to 972-473-3433, or sent to: jterm@smu.edu
   
   
4. J Term application forms will be reviewed and processed in the order in which they are received. During the week after Thanksgiving, you will be notified by email of your final course selection and given permission to go into Access.SMU to officially enroll yourself for one (1) J Term course. Any personal or financial ‘holds’ on your account will need to be cleared in order to register online and complete the enrollment process.

Information For Non-SMU Students

It may be possible for non-SMU students to be admitted as a visiting or non-degree undergraduate student and enroll in one (1) J Term course. However, circumstances vary, so please contact the following individual for personal assistance:
