klashford@ou.eduKerry Ashford is the Undergraduate Academic Counselor for the Department of Political Science. She assists undergraduate students in the Political Science and Public Affairs and Administration majors with the selection of classes each semester.
Online enrollment can be accessed through the OU website at https://enroll.ou.edu/. During designated enrollment periods, the system is available Monday through Friday from 7:00 am to midnight and on Saturdays from 10:00 am to 6:00 pm. No Sunday hours.
Students can add/drop online anytime after their initial enrollment through the first week of classes during the semester.
You can “shop” a schedule by going to https://enroll.ou.edu/on the OU webpage. The Schedule Planner will inform you if class times conflict, if you lack a required prerequisite, if you need special permission, etc. You can save up to three tentative schedules in your shopping cart. You can print off the schedule(s) and bring them with you when you come for your advising appointment. When your “window of enrollment eligibility” comes around, you can choose the one that works and push the Finalize Enrollment button. Be sure to print out your class schedule as a confirmation of enrollment.
Advising is required for Arts and Sciences students!
