Registering Online

Before you register:

If you have a hold, use the link to contact the holding office regarding clearance. Only the office that placed the hold on your records can clear it.
  • Registration opportunities are governed by student status. Remember: Courses in progress for the current semester do not count toward completed credit hours for purposes of registration. Check your registration status prior to registration and check the registration schedule for your designated registration day and time or date.
