Where will my classes be held?
KPU has five campuses (Civic Plaza, Cloverdale, Langley, Richmond, Surrey). We allow students to register in sections offered at all our campuses as availability allows. Check your schedule to ensure that you have enough travel time between classes and exams if you register in courses at different campuses. We also offer sections in-person, online and blended; this information is displayed when you search for courses (see How will my classes be delivered? below). You can locate your classes by using our Find your Classroom link.
How will my classes be delivered? (Instructional Method)
Course offerings will include a variety of in-person and online classes, as well as classes being offered in a blended (partially online) format. Whether a course is delivered in-person, online or in a blended (partially online) format, the specific instructional method will be noted in the timetable, so that you are able to view the various options when you browse classes and register.

What is a course or section attribute?
An attribute is used to identify courses or sections that meet specific requirements or criteria. For example, if a course is designated as a quantitative course, it is given the attribute Quantitative, or if a section is part of the Zero Textbook Cost program, it is given the attribute ZTC. You are able to search for courses with attributes in the Browse Classes section of the registration app. Go to the Advanced Search and scroll down to the Attribute search field. Just click into the search box to bring up a list of searchable attributes – you are able to search for more than one attribute at a time.
Review your Program Requirements
- Log in to your My Action Plan (MAP) to review the courses you need for your program. MAP will show you your current progress and the requirements still needed to complete your program.
- The University Calendar is the official guide to academic programs, courses and regulations. It includes all academic programs offered at KPU, requirements for admission, course descriptions, curricular requirements for graduation, dates of the academic terms, and fees.
- An Educational Advisor can assist you in course planning and course selection for your schedule and assist you in your progress toward graduation.
- Every student must declare their program of study before they apply to graduate. See Program Declaration for more information about declaring.
- Students may not register in a course more than twice without an approved permission. Permission can be requested through Academic Advising.
