Registering for Classes

The Office of the Registrar processes your class registration. Adding courses, dropping courses, withdrawing from courses, being placed on a waitlist, and verifying your classes are important steps that may impact your registration.

Adding Courses

You may add courses during your appointed enrollment time, the Open Enrollment period, or during the Late Registration period either by using , or by contacting the appropriate academic department office if you need assistance with a particular class. You may also add classes during the Late Add period with consent of the instructor and department. You have the right to add classes during the Add periods, subject to your having successfully completed the prerequisites (coursework and/or consent of instructor as stated in the Catalog) and to the availability of sufficient capacity in the class to accommodate you. Official policy information about adding a course can be found in the .

If you want more information on how to register, you can watch  or review this How to Enroll guide.

 

Permission Numbers

All students enrolling during the late add period, (beginning the seventh instructional day of the term), must obtain permission numbers from the academic department offering the course. These permission numbers will provide students with the department consent necessary to enroll. It will be up to each individual department to determine if the department office or the instructor will distribute these permission numbers.

Permission numbers will NOT override class capacity and course requisites/prerequisites and enrollment capacities, and prerequisites/requisites will continue to be enforced. Also, students should keep in mind that permission numbers are randomly generated, so the permission number that a student is given does not affect the student’s ability to enroll and/or the order in which they can enroll.
