The “My Registration” page will allow you to register, add or drop classes for a term. For most situations, you can select your courses, notify your adviser, receive approval from them, register and submit drops and/or adds online without having to come to the Registrar’s Office.

The two main ‘stages’ of the procedure are the following:

• Planning – This timeframe begins approximately two weeks before priority registration begins. You’ll select the courses appropriate to your major, indicate the special grading option available, (normal, pass/fail, audit) and even select alternates for your adviser to approve (in case a course you’ve selected isn’t available). Once you’re finished with your selection, click on “Submit” and your adviser is notified.
• Priority Registration – Once you receive your adviser’s approval, log in at your appointed time and submit your registration to the system. You’ll immediately be able to see your course confirmation, listing your courses and their location.

For undergraduate students, academic advising is required of all majors. Graduate students should check with their departments for required approvals. Be prepared – don’t wait until the last minute.

• You can register for (add) a course by course number, department, instructor, keywords and more. Once you are satisfied with the classes you have added, click on the “Submit” button. This will make your registration available to your adviser.
• Periodically check the system to see if your adviser has evaluated your choices.
• Once your adviser electronically approves your courses, they will become available to you.
• At your appointed time, you can then enter the system and submit them to finalize your semester registration.
• Initial selection screen below for planning or registration phases.
