(FORT BEND) – With registration for Spring 2017 underway, Texas State Technical College in Fort Bend County will be hosting a Registration Rally Wednesday, November 30 to give new and returning students the resources they need to complete the registration process under one roof.
Registration Rallies are a new initiative at TSTC that started for the Fall 2016 semester. All 10 campuses statewide host this event with hundreds of students taking advantage of the assistance offered by faculty, staff and student volunteers.
“This is one-stop shop for our students,” said Dora Colvin, director of Recruitment. “We want to help students by providing the resources and opportunities they need to finish the application and registration processes for the next semester.”
Enrollment representatives from Admissions, Financial Aid, Advisement, Support Services and Testing will be on hand to guide those attending the event. Tours of the college will also be available throughout the day.
“We hope that having faculty and staff present will help make this process easier for students,” said Colvin. “They’ll have a chance to learn about the services we offer and get the help they need.”
To complete the registration process students must bring their completed admissions application, GED scores if applicable, recent high school or college transcripts, and proof of their bacterial meningitis vaccination if under 22 years of age.
“We want to encourage students to register early,” said Colvin. “The earlier a student registers, the more likely it is they get the classes they need before they fill up and a schedule they are happy with. Of course students don’t have to wait until the event, they can apply or register anytime.”
TSTC’s registration rally will be from 10 a.m.-7 p.m. at the new TSTC Industrial Technology campus located at 26706 SW Freeway Rosenberg, Texas. The registration deadline is January 3. Spring 2017 classes begin January 9.
