(HARLINGEN) – With registration for Spring 2017 underway, Texas State Technical College will be hosting a Registration Rally Thursday, November 17 to give new and returning students the resources they need to complete the registration process.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is one-stop shop for our students,\u201d said Dora Colvin, director of Recruitment. \u201cWe want to help students by providing the resources and opportunities they need to finish the application and registration processes for the next semester.\u201d<\/p>\n

Enrollment representatives from Admissions, Financial Aid, Advisement, Support Services, the Veterans Center and Student Life will be on hand to guide those atten\"Registration<\/a>ding the event. Tours of the college will also be available throughout the day.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe hope that having faculty and staff present will help make this process easier for students,\u201d said Colvin. \u201cThey\u2019ll have a chance to learn about the services we offer and get the help they need.\u201d<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe want to encourage students to register early,\u201d said Colvin. \u201cThe 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\u2019t have to wait until the event, they can apply or register anytime.\u201d<\/p>\n

TSTC\u2019s registration rally will be from 1-6 p.m. at the Student Services Building (EK Building). Registration ends January 3. Spring 2017 classes begin January 9.<\/p>\n
