Course Registration

Course registration is managed through the Office of the Records Management & Registration. Please visit the Course Registration pages for more information on enrolling in classes and managing your class enrollment.

To prepare for registration, students should:

  • Review the course schedule.
  • Meet with their advisor or advising educator to discuss their progress through their chosen curriculum.
  • Develop a plan A, B, & C to be best prepared for registration.  Remember: Multiple plans provide for the greatest flexibility when enrolling in courses.
  • Ensure that all holds have been removed from their student account.

This will help ensure that, once registration is open, a student is able to enroll in classes as efficiently as possible.
