Please refer to your projected course schedule provided by the graduate studies coordinator to ensure you enroll for the correct classes. Please note: Most of the online courses run only 8 weeks at a time. Please be sure to pay attention to the dates of the class when registering. You must register for all classes prior to the beginning of the semester. How to Register for Classes through Your Student Portal Completing the Financial Aid Process Federal aid may be available to eligible students taking three or more credit hours each semester. Submit your FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) To receive financial aid determination at Asbury University, students must complete the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) for each academic year. It is available January 1 and should be submitted as soon as possible for optimum consideration. The Asbury University School Code is 001952 FAFSA Website: https://studentaid.gov/fafsa Graduate Aid Application All Graduate students wishing to be considered for federal financial aid must complete a Graduate Aid Application annually. The GAA form will automatically be added as a checklist item in your application portal if you indicated that you will be using financial aid on your application. You can fill this out within your application portal, and it will automatically be submitted to the financial aid office for you. This form, along with the FAFSA, will enable us to determine your financial aid eligibility. Note: If you did not indicate on your application that you plan on filing the FAFSA, please contact the financial aid office (financial.aid@asbury.edu). Ordering Your Textbooks Students may order their textbooks online through the Asbury University Student Bookstore or by using your Student Portal. When ordering textbooks online through either of these avenues, students may pay for textbooks using a Student Voucher. Selecting the Student Voucher payment method will place textbook charges on your student account at the University. This will allow you to pay for the textbooks at a later date or use loans/grants/scholarships to pay for the textbooks. Students may also pay for textbooks with a credit card. Note: Vouchers may only be used 3 weeks prior to classes starting, and two weeks after they begin. It is best to order all textbooks prior to the start of the semester. If you wish, you may purchase your textbooks outside of Asbury University. Please note, when purchasing textbooks and materials outside of the institution, make sure that you are securing the correct required textbook editions and materials. The best ways to ensure that you are securing the correct textbooks and materials is to access textbook information through the Asbury University Online Bookstore at http://bookstore.asbury.edu and to use the book’s ISBN number when searching for a textbook online. How to Find and Order Textbooks Navigating Discovery Discovery is the service powered by D2L Brightspace that Asbury uses for online class management. Students taking online classes will find all of their course content, assignments, syllabi, etc. on Discovery. Professors use Discovery to upload their syllabi and provide a place for online submission of assignments. As a student at Asbury, you will want to frequently check Discovery to stay up-to-date on your classes. The Basics of Using Discovery All online courses will use Zoom for virtual class sessions.

Getting Started in Student Government with I.T. Services
Overview Our team here are I.T. Services is committed to providing student government with services and support to prepare you for success. We offer a variety of services to student government, including support for events, digital content services, and general IT support. This document highlights some of the key services we offer to Student Government. Table of Contents Requesting Digital Signage Requesting Audio/Visual Support for an Event Requesting Access to Student Government Mailboxes Asbury Webpage & Calendar Access General IT Support Requesting Digital Signage Asbury University manages a network of digital signage displays across campus designed with the purpose of informing students, faculty, staff, and visitors of University announcements, student events, I.T. Services announcements, holiday information, and other relevant campus-related information. This network of digital signage provides an intuitive and unobtrusive way to inform students of new opportunities and events in a graphical way. Student Organizations may submit slides for display across campus to the Service Desk, where they will be approval based on I.T. Services’ digital signage policies and guidelines before being published to the digital signage system. Our graphic design team can also help create a slide for you. Submit your information and we will work with you to create signage for your event that meets Asbury branding standards! To upload a slide for approval, use our Digital Signage Upload Form. To request the creation of a slide, use our Digital Signage Creation Form. Requesting Audio/Visual Support for an Event I.T. Services supports the campus community through our Audio/Visual Event Support Team. Our group of 20+ professional student employees and full time staff members is responsible for over 300 events per year, including Asbury University’s Chapel, Music Department Recitals, and many other community events. This request form allows you to request a staffed event with a sound system and other resources. Staffed events will be subject to charges to cover the cost of student labor. The amounts vary, but the average cost for an event is $10/hour for each staffed position (typically a minimum of two positions). We place a high value on the production of each and every event which we support on campus. To that end, we require a specific timeline, certain information, and the adherence to certain policies/procedures as detailed below. For events involving cabinet officers, events with estimated attendance over 50 people, and for all events requiring significant stage management, we require a meeting between the primary contact, and a representative from our staff. Two weeks advanced notice is required for all events. Events which are late (within two weeks) are subject to staff and equipment availability. Due to staffing and equipment logistics, accepted late events are subject to a $25 fee. Events with less than 48 hours’ notice will be refused. Requests made for support are not guaranteed to be filled, and are subject to availability of staff and equipment. In cases where we are unable to support the event, we will pass contact information for local vendor partners so that you can arrange support independently. If your event requires equipment that we do not offer, we will obtain a quote on your behalf from local vendor partners and give you the option of renting additional equipment. Event Support Requests can only be made by members of the Asbury University Community. I.T. Services provides very limited services off-campus in support of select groups. If your event isn’t on Asbury University’s Campus, you may be responsible for the rental/use of vehicles by I.T. Services for travel to/from the event. This will be included in your final bill. If your event isn’t on campus, you will need to meet with a representative of our office for approval. Services to buildings and property beyond the boundaries of the contiguous main campus (such as the Equine Center and Windsor Manor) are limited. All changes to events must be submitted to I.T. Services 2 business days in advance. Violations of this will result in a $25 fee on your final bill. All media for your event is due 2 business days before your scheduled event. Media submitted after this deadline will result in a $25 fee. Estimates are available on request, but will not be furnished automatically. Account Number must be provided at initial request. Requests without account numbers will be treated as incomplete. Incomplete requests must be completed with an account number at least 2 weeks out, or the event will be considered late, and will not be guaranteed ($25 fee applies to any late event). Event sponsor assumes responsibility for stolen, missing or damaged equipment during their event and is liable for misuse by event participants, including mic drops. Any equipment stolen, missing or damaged during the event will be charged back to the provided account number. If your event requires a special layout, or setup done by Campus Facilities or another group, this request must be made independently to that office, and confirmed with us. For events within the campus cafeteria, all walls and tables should be moved the night before (by 8 p.m.). If this cannot happen, we must be notified in advance. For most events we prepare the night before. For most events, we require a two-person minimum for staff. Larger events are staffed based on requests. Please reserve the space at least 1 hour before and 1 hour after your event to provide us with sufficient time for setup and tear down.. Information Technology Services does not reserve spaces. Reservations for campus spaces/locations should go through the Registrar’s Office Requesting Access to Student Government Mailboxes I.T. Services manages access to all email inboxes. If you need access to any student government inboxes, email service.desk@asbury.edu with the mailbox you would like access to.
