Transient / TAP / Post Baccalaureate / Senior Citizen
Congratulations on choosing to continue your education at Clayton State University!
Post Baccalaureate
A student who holds a bachelor’s degree from an accredited college or university. Post-Baccalaureate students have an option to attend orientation; the program is not required. If you choose not to attend orientation, you must follow the steps below:
- Once admitted by the Admissions Office please contact your appropriate academic advisor via Advisor Connect which can be found in the top right hand corner of the SWAN (once logged in) by clicking on the Advising Tab. After meeting with your advisor you will be able to register for your classes.
Important Note
A post-baccalaureate student seeking another degree should contact the Admissions Office to reclassify their student status to a Transfer student.
Post-baccalaureate students seeking another degree (transfer students) should register for the Transfer Express orientation session. Specific topic/breakout sessions will be able for non-traditional and transfer students during the express orientation session.
These sessions offer activities that are more brief in nature and include academic advisement and course registration.
TAP
A student who is an employee in the University System of Georgia. Orientation is optional and the fee is waived. A TAP student may not be allowed to register for courses during orientation, however TAP students must adhere to the class registration dates mandated by the “teaching institution.” This period will begin immediately after the end of the "teaching institution's" regular student registration period. Please contact the Registrar’s Office for more information at (678) 466-4145.
