PIN Number

The PIN (Personal Identification Number) is a number the student selects to protect the privacy of their own computer data.

  • The first time the Campus Information System (Web Banner) is used, the student will be asked to enter their birthday (to verify their identity) in the mm/dd/yy format. (January 3, 1985 = 010385)
  • The student will then be directed to create a new PIN:
    - that has 6 digits (all numbers, no letters)
    - is not their birthday
    - is not all zeroes
  • In the future you will always be asked for this PIN number to gain access to the Campus Information System. This will provide security for your records.
  • If you forget your PIN number, enter your User ID and click on "Forgot PIN". The security question you entered into the system will appear. Enter the answer to the security question and click on "Submit." You will then be prompted to create a new six digit PIN which will be required for future access. If you are still unable to get into the online system, call the Office of Registration and Records at (585) 395-2531 to have your PIN number reset. For your protection, a list of PIN numbers does not exist.

Permission Key Number

A Permission Key Number is the electronic signature of the instructor that the instructor or the academic department provides a student in order to enroll in a course that is not otherwise open to the student.

  • This number is specific to one particular section of the course and is unique.
  • Each number can be used only once.
  • Each number can be used only for the section of the course to which it was assigned.
  • When you register for a course which requires a permission key number, it is a two step process. (See Step #8 in the “How to Register Online.")
  • Permission to enter any course that requires approval is a privilege. Instructors/academic departments are not obligated to grant registration permission to individuals.

Course Reference Number (CRN)

Each course is associated with a four-digit course reference number (CRN) that is used to identify the course during the registration process.

  • The CRN can be found to the far left of the course discipline code (or subject code) and number in the course listings for each department in this printed course schedule and also on the online course schedule.
  • Here is an example: 2536 ACC 281.01 - The CRN is 2536.
  • When choosing your course prior to registration, be sure to make note of the CRN as well as the course discipline and course number. You will be using the CRN to register for your course. If the CRN is underlined, click on it for more course information.

Registration Errors

Examples of registration errors: Closed sections, time conflicts, signature required, prerequisites or duplicate section. You cannot override these errors. You will need to get permission (a signature or a permission key number) from the proper person (the instructor or the department chairperson) to override the error.

If you obtain a permission key number, you can register online. It is a two step process (refer to step #8 on the “How to Register Online for Courses” section) or go to the Office of Registration and Records in person. The office staff can use this permission key number to register you for the course.

When you get the proper signature, you will need to bring the permission signature to the Office of Registration and Records in person. The office staff will use the permission signature to override the error and register you for the course.

Registering Online

Online registration is operational 24 hours a day and you can register from any computer connected to the internet anywhere, from the Brockport Home page. Students are strongly encouraged to register online.

Before you register:

  • Please check your records prior to registration for any holds that may prevent you from registering. To check for holds, sign on to Web Banner and go to "Student Services" then "View Holds." If you have a hold, use the link to the Faculty and Staff Directory to contact the holding office regarding clearance. The Office of Registration and Records cannot clear holds. Only the office that placed the hold on your records can clear it.
  • Permission Key Numbers must be obtained from the course instructor for any course that may be closed or otherwise restricted.
