Undergraduate Admissions Cross Registration

Eligible Institutions

The purpose of cross registration through the Pittsburgh Council of Higher Education (PCHE) is to provide opportunities for enriched educational programs by permitting undergraduate full-time students at any of the 10 participating colleges and universities to take courses at any other PCHE institution.

Carlow College, Carnegie Mellon University, Chatham College, Community College of Allegheny County, Duquesne University, LaRoche College, Pittsburgh Theological Seminary, Point Park College, Robert Morris College, and the University of Pittsburgh comprise the PCHE Institutions. Although this is a University-wide program, School of Engineering policy does not permit engineering students to register for courses at any community college.

Enrollment

A student may normally enroll in only one course off campus and in only one institution in a given term. Enrollment is, of course, constrained by the space and prerequisite limitations of the host institution. Those students who cross register will pay the University of Pittsburgh tuition for the given term. They are, however, responsible for paying any course or laboratory fee(s) to the host institution. Students should refer to the University Time Schedule and discuss the issue with their academic advisor before cross registering. The University Time Schedule lists the guidelines for cross registration.

Students who wishes to cross register at any institution other than those listed above should discuss this registration with their advisor. The transfer of such courses will follow the guidelines for transfer credits given in the Transfer of Credits section in this Web site.
