COURSE OF STUDY: ENROLLMENT INSTRUCTIONS

Step by Step Registration Process

  1. All necessary information is found on the COS Web Site at http://coswv.org/. Course Pre-Work (syllabi) is found at http://coswv.org/schedule/.
  2. Complete the Student Information Form.  Once completed, you will be in the system and only need to update if any information changes. To complete form, select this link – https://form.jotform.com/230835038525051 – and complete as instructed. 
  3. Complete the Course Registration Form.  The General Board has replaced the Social Security Number with a PID Number.  If you have your PID, please use it.  If you do not know your PID number, contact the Registrarat GBHEM to obtain it.  You may call (615) 340-7416 or email at cosregistrar@gbhem.org. 
  4. Make certain you know which courses you have taken and which you need.  Remember there was a curriculum change in Fall 2014 so you may need to complete a Course Conversion Sheet to be certain.  If you need a transcript, contact the Registrar at GBHEM (who is only one with direct access to transcripts).
  5. The registration form is found on the COS Website at the following link: https://coswv.org/registration/.  This link will take you to the registration page, where you will select another link to register for classes.  During a term, you may take up to two courses.  Please note, if you are just starting, you must first complete COS 121 and COS 122 before attempting any other courses.
  6. Once you submit your registration form, your District Superintendent (DS) and Local Pastor Registrar (LPR) will approve electronically.  Once they have approved, you will receive a notification that you are registered.
  7. Upon receiving notification that your registration has been approved by DS and LPR, you have 21 days to submit your registration fee.  Because of inconsistent mail delivery in some areas, you are encouraged to send fee asap. Make check payable to WV Conference Treasurer; the registration fee is $40 per class.  If you mail the registration form after the indicated deadline, there is a $15 late fee, making the registration $55 per class.
  8. Mail Registration Form (you will receive via email from Jotform) and your payment to:
    • WV Conference of the UMC
    • Attn: Paula Koontz
    • PO Box 2469 – Charleston, WV 25329
  9. Because of ever increasing attendance, early registration makes it much easier to plan accommodations.  If you have specific needs regarding housing or meals, please contact Spring Heights directly at (304) 927-5865 in advance of the first weekend.
  10. Tuition is $270 per course, meals $60 per term (not optional), and lodging $50 per term (optional).  We will calculate your scholarship and send you a bill indicating the balance due.  This is due the first weekend you arrive.
