J Term Enrollment Process For SMU Students

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 as soon as possible for best consideration and no later than 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday, November 23, 2011 (before Thanksgiving). 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


3. J Term application forms will be reviewed and processed in the order in which they are received. After Thanksgiving, you will be notified of your final course selection and given permission to go into Access.SMU to officially enroll yourself for that one (1) course. Any personal or financial ‘holds’ on your account will need to be cleared in order to register on-line and complete the enrollment process.
