The following classes will be offered Spring 2015. If you are interested in any of these
courses, please fax special student application and NTL scholarship application, to
501-279-4083 by December 16, 2014. If you have any questions, contact the Graduate Studies
in Education office at 501-279-4315 or e-mail [email protected] . If registering
for classes, you must have your textbooks before classes begin.
If you have never taken a graduate course from Harding or plan to take a total of 6 hours or less
from Harding, you should fill out a “Special Student Application which can be located at
http://www.harding.edu/education/graduateprograms/nondegree Applications cannot be
filled out on-line; they must be printed off and faxed.
If you wish to apply for financial aid or have taken 6 or more graduate hours from Harding
University already or plan to take over 6 hours in the future, you must fill out the “Not Seeking
A Degree Application” (instead of the “Special Student Application”). To locate this
application, go to http://www.harding.edu/education/graduateprograms/nondegree , then look
under “Not Seeking A Degree” and print off the application. Applications cannot be filled
out on-line; they must be printed off and scanned and e-mailed to
[email protected] or faxed to 501-279-4083. To find out more about financial
aid, please e-mail [email protected]. Students who are seeking a non-traditional
license (NTL) and taking 6 or more hours of classes may be eligible for financial aid.
On your fax coversheet, tell us in which class or classes you wish to register and then be sure
to show up for class. If you wish to confirm your registration once you have sent in your
application or have any questions, contact the Graduate Studies in Education office at 501279-4315. Harding will not contact you, other than e-billing you a bill to your Harding e-mail
at a later date. In some cases, the bill may not reach you until after the class has begun.
All students must activate their Harding student computer account. To do so, go to
http://pipeline.harding.edu, click the link that says “Activate My Student Account ”. After
filling out the information, you will be given a Harding student number (H#) and a username
and password. As a graduate student, this account will give you a Harding e-mail address and
it will allow you to view and pay your business office account, view and accept financial aid
records, view grades, order textbooks, get on Canvas, and access other services available
within Campus Pipeline.
Between 1 and 3 weeks before classes begin, you should order your textbooks. Books can be
ordered by going online through your Harding “Pipeline” account, or by going to
http://hubookstore.harding.edu/Home.aspx, click on "Textbooks", "Select the Department",
“Select Course”, and click on "Get Course Materials", and the textbooks for that particular
course will appear. If this website is not working, then contact the bookstore at
