Registering for Courses


All currently enrolled students are expected to register for classes using Workday. For Fall and Spring semester registration, registration windows for returning students open at 6:00 PM ET on the dates listed on the University Calendar.


Registration appointments are based on students’ class standing at the time of registration. Class standing is determined by the number of credits earned at the time of registration. A student’s in-progress credits are not counted when determining class standing.


Students must be approved by their academic advisor prior to registration.
