Registration Materials
February, 2008
Please read everything as important information is provided!
You'll find everything you need to register for your courses as well as apply for financial aid.
Pre-campus course work takes significant time, so the sooner you register the better off you will be! The registration period is February 1 through April 15; late registration is April 16 through May 1. NO REGISTRATIONS WILL BE ACCEPTED AFTER MAY 1.
The on-campus session begins with a dinner and convocation for all MED Students on Sunday evening, June 22. More details will be forthcoming closer to the time.
If you have decided not to enroll or to postpone enrollment, please e-mail to let us know.
As you complete the registration form you may want to refer to the MED catalog. The Course Offerings List specifies the courses offered, and the Course Sequence Chart maps out the schedule of courses during the on-campus session. Please be sure to complete all sections of the registration form. Download all appropriate forms and mail to: Rebecca Dodson, Master of Education Program, Covenant College, 14049 Scenic Highway, Lookout Mountain, GA 30750. You will also receive a post-paid return envelope and 2008 catalog via regular post so you may wish to use this envelope to return registration documents.
