Registration

All currently enrolled students, readmits, new graduate students, and new online learners are eligible to participate in registration. New undergraduate students (excluding transient students) will need to attend an orientation session where they will have an opportunity to register for classes. New students not attending orientation will have an opportunity to register after the last scheduled orientation session. 

Registration begins at 8:00 am on the first day and ends at 11:45 pm on the last day of registration

Assigned registration times are based on student classification, hours earned (including transfer hours, not including currently enrolled hours).

Fulfillment of Course Prerequisites

The registration system will consider a course to be “in-progress” when a student is currently enrolled in the course and consider the prerequisite fulfilled by the student being enrolled in that course.

Students who do not meet the course prerequisites or registration requirements for classes in which they may have registered for during the Early Registration period must drop the course/s prior to the end of Drop/Add. Students should check their registration during Final Registration and prior to the end of Drop/Add. The Office of the Registrar may drop a student from a course in which the student does not meet the course prerequisites at the request of the academic department.

Drop/Add Sessions

A Drop/Add Session is offered to students at the beginning of the semester. Dates vary by session  and  are indicated on the Academic Calendar.
