Consortium for Urban Education (Cross Registration or CUE)
Butler is a member of the Consortium for Urban Education (CUE)
in the Indianapolis area. By special arrangement among the member
institutions, students are given the opportunity to enroll in
courses at other CUE institutions which are not available at their
Home institution. Cross registration enables students to enhance
their degree programs by taking a course at another CUE institution
and receive credit at their Home institution upon successful
completion of the course. Participants:
- Butler University
- Franklin College
- Marian College
- IUPUI
- Martin University
- Ivy Tech State College
- University of Indianapolis
Policy and Eligibility
Eligibility for CUE enrollments shall be determined by the
student's Home institution and is subject to conditions outlined
below. A student may enroll in a maximum of one CUE course a
semester, not to exceed a total of four courses throughout the
student's program. Students may register for credit courses offered
by other CUE institutions in the same term on a space-available
basis. The consortium is not available to students during
summer sessions.
Students may use the cross registration system to register for
Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) courses at Indiana
University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) without negating
the possibility of cross registration in one other course in
addition to ROTC.

CUE Registration Procedures at Butler

& Records, Jordan Hall, room 133. Her phone number is (317)
940-9442 and her e-mail is dcrisan@butler.edu. Students do
not contact the host school directly to enroll. If enrollment is
done directly through the host institution, you will be billed for
the course.

selection.

own deadlines we must adhere to. You may check individual websites
for information.
- The CRO determines final eligibility of the student to enroll
through CUE.
- Butler's CRO will contact the CRO at the Host institution to
determine if space exists in the course. If so, Butler will send
the application to the Host institution's CRO and the student
follows Butler's registration procedures.
- Butler's CRO completes arrangements for the student
- Secures a place in desired class (if available)
- Distributes and explains all Host institutional policies to the
student, such as parking regulations, Veterans policy, etc.
