Registration Helpful Hints:

How do I find my Registration Appointment? In your Student Self Service Center, on the right is a box titled Enrollment Dates. Click on the “details” link and you will be taken to your individual registration appointment.
Add/Drops: You may add and drop classes freely before the published census date. After the census date passes please be aware that there is NO REFUND for dropped classes. Also, after census date you will need to acquire appropriate signatures on an Add/Drop form (available in Admissions & Records Main Hall 108) in order to add or drop a course. 
Swapping a course: The course swap option lets you drop and add courses in a single transaction. So you do not lose a spot in one course, unless there is an open spot in the other course. 
Withdrawals: This is when you withdraw from the semester completely. At this point you will no longer be enrolled in any classes for that semester. A 100% refund is given for a withdrawal before the census date. AFTER the census date the refund will drop to 80% then 60% corresponding to days in the semester. NOTE: This is the ONLY circumstance where a refund is given at percents after census date. Refund percentages count against your total bill, not what is paid at the point of withdrawal. 
Permission Numbers: Should the course you wish to enroll in require a permission number (Independent study courses, etc.), you will need to obtain one from the instructor of the course. When you go to enroll in the course, search and select the course as usual. BEFORE you put the class in your shopping cart the system will confirm the class you’re adding. This is where you put the permission number in and then click ‘Next’ to add it to your shopping cart.
Waitlists: Closed courses may allow students to place themselves on a waitlist.  Waitlist are like an electronic line and when a spot becomes available, the next person in line who meets the requisites of the course is automatically enrolled in the course.  If you are on a waitlist, you should check your status regularly, especially if you are in the top five in line.
Schedule of Courses: Complete details on registration, policies and deadlines are published in the schedule of courses.
