Enrolling in University Studies
from a Distance
Distance students may complete the application process without coming to the campus. If
the student is unable to travel to the University of Maine campus, then a scheduled
telephone interview may substitute for the typical in-office interview. The student may be
requested to forward academic papers to the advisor prior to the scheduled telephone
interview. At the time of the interview, the advisor and student will discuss the degree
plan and the suitability of the program for the student's educational needs. All paper
work, including official transcripts must be submitted prior to the interview.
| Registering for a Course at a Distance |
| Students may enroll, when appropriate, in courses on ITV, Compressed Video, or the WEB. If taking a course at a
distance, (not at the Orono campus) the student must register with UNET at 1-800-868-7000
or with their local site. The "Help-Line" at 581-3199 is available to assist
students in connecting to their courses via Web or FirstClass conferencing. When
taking courses at a distance, students must submit a "Multi-campus Notification
Form" (included in the Guide to application) at time of registration to their advisor
and forward a grade transcript to the academic advisor for evaluation at the end of the
semester. Each student is encouraged to arrange telephone appointments prior to
registration for academic approval. Advisors are available to the student anytime during
the semester to answer academic questions. |
