Directions for Searching for Classes:
"Search for Classes"
Step 1: On the Class Search screen, you’ll
need to choose UH-Victoria, the course term, and Search for
Classes. Then, choose Go.
Step 2: The next screen that appears will be where you enter
your search criteria.
You must choose at least two items
(criteria) for your search. One of these will have to be the
course subject, but the other item is up to you: you can search
by the course number, by the meeting time, by the instructor’s
name, and so on.
Want to see an example? You can see the
beginning of one student's search
here.
Step 3: Your research results will appear.
Depending upon what’s important to you, you’ll want to look at
the day and time the course is offered, who the instructor is,
what location the class is being offered, and/or the instruction
mode.
There are a couple of
things that you’ll want to look for when the search results
display.
In our example, we searched for ENG 3430 classes. Let’s
use our example to discuss some of the important features of the
search results.
- Check to see how many pages are available (the red circle
with the number 1 by it in the upper right corner of the image
above). Sometimes, you’ll only have one page of results, but if
more than one page of results is available, the Last will be
bolded. You’ll need to click on Last to see the second page of
your results.
- The section number (the red circle with the number 2 beside
it) is important. Once you’ve decided on a section to take,
you’ll want to write down this section number. In our example,
the section number is 15362. You’ll need this section number to
sign up for (or register) for classes.
By clicking on the section number, you can learn more
information about the class, including the class availability
(whether or not there are seats available and, if so, how many)
and any prerequisites for the course. (To learn about
prerequisites for a course, visit the course catalog at
http://www.uhv.edu/catalog/course_descriptions.asp.)
When you’re finished viewing the screen, choose Return to
Results. Continue to choose course section numbers until you’ve
found the section of the course that meets your needs. Once
you’ve chosen the course that you want to take, write down the
section number. You’ll need this section number when you sign up
(or register) for classes.
Step 4: When you’re finished looking at the sections available
for one class, choose Start a New Search to begin searching for
the next class that you want to take.
Then, return to step one to start your new search.
From here, you can read directions for
Browsing
the Catalog or you can
Search the Catalog.
