Registration

Registration for most students begins with pre-registration in the preceding semester. Pre-registration schedules are determined by credit hours completed and other factors. For best course selection, you should register during your scheduled time in which you have priority.

Prior to your registration period, you should consult with your advisor and obtain necessary permissions. You should also ensure that there are no holds, financial or otherwise, on your record as they may delay your registration. Be Prepared!

Consult the Catalog (link in right margin) for help in planning your schedule. Remember that you must be registered for at least 12 credits to be considered a full-time student. Your status is a critical factor in determining your eligibility for financial aid.
