Each semester, students must contact an advisor before enrolling in classes for the upcoming semester. Students who wish to enroll online using their Pipeline must:

• Complete and submit the Enrollment Update form and the Release to Enroll form
• Form is then reviewed by an advisor
• Advisor will email student to let them know if they have been released to enroll

Advisors will make every effort to contact the student within two to three business days (excluding weekends and holidays). Please keep in mind that during times of heavy enrollment (January, April, May, July, August, November), it may take longer than two business days to respond. Once you have been released to enroll, you do not need to meet with an advisor unless you have further questions. For additional advising questions, please call 316-322-3163 (El Dorado) or 316-218-6259 (Andover).
