When to Register
Register early—classes fill quickly!
We encourage you to register as early as possible!
Priority Registration - Current students can take advantage of priority registration, which opens one week earlier than open registration. Registration opens the second week after spring break for summer and fall registration and the first full week in November for spring registration.
Late Registration - Late registration is not permitted for online classes without instructor approval: view schedule changes and course withdrawals procedure for more details.
