Current & Past Schedules



Early in every semester, the COB Graduate Office will send an email to the graduate business student distribution list informing students that the schedule for the following semester has been completed and is available on the Graduate Business School webpage for review. 

 

Students can register online through the Banner registration system.  Information about Banner, including registration tutorials, can be found at www.ecu.edu/cs-admin/studentbanner  basic registration instructions are given below.  The College of Business MBA and MSA advisors are available for guidance, but it is the student’s responsibility to register for classes.  Likewise, each student, new or continuing, has primary responsibility for assuring that he or she is completing degree requirements. 

 

Registration for any particular semester begins on a date pre-determined by the Registrar’s Office.  Important registration dates are listed on official University calendars available online at www.ecu.edu/fsonline/senate/fscalend.cfm.  Students can register for classes on any date on or after that beginning date.  Students are expected to complete registration, including the payment of all required fees, on the dates prescribed in the university calendar.  Students who fail to pay fees by this date will have their schedules canceled.

Add/Drop/Withdrawal

Before add/drop deadline - http://www.ecu.edu/fsonline/senate/fscalend.cfm
A graduate student may make schedule changes (add or delete one or more courses) at any time from the start of registration until the last add date for a semester.  During this time, students can alter their own schedules via Banner.  The last add date is usually six or seven calendar days after the start of a semester.  The date can be found on the official University calendar via the link above.  Once the last add date has passed, a student can drop a course, but can no longer add a course.  Switching sections is not allowed after the last add date.  Adding a course is always subject to seating availability.

After add/drop deadline -http://www.ecu.edu/fsonline/senate/fscalend.cfm

Withdrawals/Refunds

Withdrawal - Dropping your only class or all your classes
If a student wishes to drop their only class or to drop all of their classes, the process is called Withdrawal. All withdrawals must be made prior to the final drop date. Campus based students should contact the Registrar’s Office in person or via letter/fax. Distance Education students can contact the Registrar’s Office by letter/fax or email at DEDrops@ecu.edu. There is additional paperwork to be completed after your initial email so make sure you complete the entire process. You may not withdraw by phone.

Refunds

Students are given a partial tuition refund dependent upon the date the class or classes are dropped.  Not all schedule changes result in a refund.  In order to facilitate refunds, each registered East Carolina University student will receive an ECU Debit Card.  The card will arrive in the mail at the student’s primary address on file with the University.  To receive a refund, the student must activate the ECU Debit Card.  During card activation, the student will choose how to receive the refund money.  Visit www.ecucard.com for more information.

 

Please copy Ms. Williams (williamsti@ecu.edu) or Ms. Armstrong (armstrongr@ecu.edu) on any email correspondence regarding dropping a class or withdrawing.  No course is officially dropped or added until the required procedure is completed.  It is the student's responsibility to complete the procedure for course drops.  If in doubt, ask the CoB Graduate Office.

Tuition Rates

Current tuition rates for campus and DE classes can be found at http://www.ecu.edu/financial_serv/cashier/tufee.cfm

 

Students who are registered as campus based students pay different fees that give them access to campus based amenities/services like the Student Recreation Center, Student Health Services, etc.  Campus based classes, whether they are face to face or online, use section numbers that begin with 0xx, like 001, 002, 003, or 061, 062, 063 etc.

 

Students who are registered as Distance Education students pay less in student fees.  Tuition is typically less for Distance Education classes if a student is part time and taking only online classes.  Distance Education classes are designated with section numbers beginning with 6xx, like 601, 602, 603, or 661, 662, 663 etc.  Students who are registered for all Distance Education classes will not have access to any campus amenities/services except the library.

 

Financial aid is awarded at a lesser rate for Distance Education classes.  If a student is seeking financial aid, they need to determine which type of classes they prefer to be registered for.  The campus based classes can cost more in tuition, but are awarded higher rate in terms of financial aid.

 

Some Helpful Guidelines for the Least Expensive Tuition

1 to 3 online classes – all DE (6xx) sections

4 online classes (in state) – all DE (6xx) sections

4 online classes (out of state) – all campus (0xx) sections

1 Face to Face (F2F) and 2 online classes – F2F (0xx) section, online DE (6xx) sections

2 F2F and 1 online class – F2F (0xx), online DE (6xx) section

Combination of 4 or more classes - online and F2F sections – all campus (0xx) section
