Quick Start Tutorial

(Page 2)

As you begin your journey with Independent Study, here are some things that you won't want to miss.

Register

To register for your course, simply fill out the form that follows this tutorial. You may submit it online or by mail or fax.

Regardless of the method of registration, it will take about one week to process and ship the materials to you. If you have not received your materials in this time, please contact us for more information.

If you have not yet decided which course you wish to take, please visit our online list of course offerings.

Tuition/Fees/Financial Aid Information

Tuition may be paid in full at the time of registration with cash, check, credit card, or money order.

While our office does not offer financial aid, you may be eligible for loans, grants or scholarships. Eligibility must be determined by the financial aid office of your home institution prior to registration for an Independent Study course.

More information about tuition, fees and financial aid is available on the Fees and Financial Aid page. Ole Miss students should consult with the Office of Financial Aid.

Advising

To ensure that you receive the course credit that you expect, we encourage you to speak with an advisor at your home institution before registering for an Independent Study course. Because different schools have varied graduation policies, we cannot be responsible for the courses that you choose. If you do not have a home institution, please contact us.

Textbooks

Instructions on what textbook to order will be in the front of your syllabus or on your class homepage on Angel. Since the Ole Miss bookstore does not carry the editions needed by Independent Study students, most students choose to order their books online. It is vital that you get the exact edition that the teacher requires because many professors rely on page numbers and other factors to get you through lessons. Therefore, we suggest using ED MAP, an online textbook vendor, to purchase your book because they make sure they carry the editions that our classes need. ED MAP accepts most credit cards and personal checks for domestic orders. International orders require a credit card. All in-stock textbooks are shipped within 24 hours of order, but special items can take 12-15 business days. Books are shipped via UPS unless shipping to a P.O. Box. TO ORDER FROM ED MAP: Call: 800-274-9104 or (740)753-3439 Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. and Saturday 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. EST or go online anytime: http://www.storefront-edmap.biz/mis.
