Abstract

The interactive student registration system uses a computer system having a telephone interface providing a multiplicity of incoming telephone lines, a memory, a voice synthesizer output and a data connection to a host data processor of the institution. The host data processor provides a series of information data banks including student information, course information and the like. By use of a touchtone telephone, a student calls the registration system and, by a series of interactive communications, registers for courses offered by the institution or obtains information relating to registration. A large series of operations is conducted including determining whether the student has paid property deposits, satisfying requirements such as instructor or advisor approval for particular courses, assuring that co-requisite and prerequisite requirements are met, assuring that graduate students, student instructors or scholarship students are taking a minimum number of hours and the like.
