You can use the Search for courses field to find a course.

When you search for a course you are automatically taken to the Course Catalog where you can see a list of courses that match your search criteria. You can then use the filters to refine your search and view the details for a course.
Search Tips
The following list contains tips that will help you find the course you want:

• The course search is not case sensitive.
• To search for a specific section, enter the course name and section ID strung together. For example, Math-101-01 can be searched by entering math10101.
• If multiple search words are separated by a space, either word will cause a "hit" in the search results. Use "and" in your search to ensure all given search words are found. For example, use "spanish" and "conversational" to find only the results for courses related to conversational Spanish courses and not all Spanish courses and all conversational courses.
• Using AND versus OR in your course search will change the results. If you use the word AND between two words, the search results will contain only courses that contain both words in the course title or description. If you use the word OR between two words, the search results will contain courses with either of the two words in the course title and description. For example, if you typed Corporate OR Law you would get broader search results than if you typed Corporate AND Law.

The following areas are what your search term will be checked against:

• Course name (subject and course number)
• Section name (subject, course number, section number, and synonym)
• Course description
• Course and section title
• Department (code and description)
• Location (code and description)

You can use the Course Catalog to locate courses.

Return to the Course Catalog and in the Search for a course subject field, enter the first letter or letters of the subject to refine the list. After you select a subject, you can then select an item from the list to view the course search details.

The Keyword Search supports single and multiple character wildcard searches.

To perform a multiple character wildcard search, use the "*" symbol. Multiple character wildcard searches looks for 0 or more characters. For example:

• test* - will search for to search for test, tests, or tester, etc.
• te*t - will search for tenet, test, tent, etc.

To perform a single character wildcard search, use the "?" symbol. The single character wildcard search looks for items that match with the single character replaced. For example:

• te?t - will search for the word text, tent, test, etc.

Note: You cannot use a * or ? symbol as the first character of a search.

You can filter search results to view course and section information by using the filters in the Filter Results.

• Refine your search results by applying filters from the categories on the left side of the page. For example, you could filter your search results by availability, subject, location, and course level.
• You can add and remove any or all filters on your search results.

Select a course from the search results to expand and review the course details. You can also expand and review the available sections, if applicable.

When viewing the Section details, you will see any fees associated with the section under Additional Course Fees. Fees that are the same amount for any number of credits are listed as a flat amount, and variable fees are denoted by the words per credit. Some fees may not apply to all students; these fees are denoted by the * symbol.

If your institution has enabled a section listing, you will see a Results View option on the advanced search tab. Click the Section Listing option to return a table view of sections instead of the full course catalog results. Section Listing is for viewing only and you will not be able to add sections to a plan from that view.

If waitlisting is being used, the number of students on the waitlist is displayed after the section is full. After you choose a course, select View Available Sections and then open the Section Details to view number of seats in the class and number on the waitlist.

You must log in if you want to add a course or section to your plan.
