The following students have not completed their course selection process. If any of these students are in your TA, please ask them to see Mr. von Matt as soon as possible to complete. If they have their form they can simply drop it off in the counseling area. If they have lost their form, we will give them a new one. Students can enter their courses with their passwords if they wish, but if they have lost their password or they are locked out because they have tried too many times unsuccessfully, they can just fill in the form.
