Continued Enrollment

If a student is not actively enrolled in classes at Southeastern for a year, their account will become inactive. In order to avoid this if doing vocational electives elsewhere, students must be enrolled in a Continuous Enrollment course. Students should inform the Registrar’s Office (registrar@sebts.edu) when they are taking elective courses elsewhere and not actively taking courses at Southeastern.
