To be able to register for classes at a Registration Day, you must arrive during Check-In and stay through the entire program. Check-in is an important process that allows our staff to prepare to advise you and help you register for classes. Attending Check-In ensures a smooth registration process as this is where we take care of important tasks like lifting holds.
We know attending a Registration Day can feel like a long day but it is important to attend the entire day to prepare you for success at É«ÖÐÉ«µ¼º½! Important information will be given during the day that you won't want to miss! We ask that you keep this in mind when signing up for your Registration Day.
ATTENTION: All freshmen students admitted with a high school cumulative GPA below 3.0 without test scores will need to submit a test score or take an Accuplacer test BEFORE the registration day (check your admit letter or online admissions portal for clarification). Please read the policy fully here* for important instructions to complete before meeting with your Advisor.
Please note, that guest and special students do not need to attend a registration day. Registration days are only required for first-time, full time students and Transfer students who have less than 60 credit hours transferring in.
