Review: Registration Page Details

  1. Navigate to My Academics > Registration
  2. Select a Program. The current program is displayed by default.
    • If you are enrolled in one program only, the program is already selected.
    • If you are enrolled in multiple programs, a message is displayed indicating the number of programs you are enrolled in. Select your current program for which you want to register classes. If you have questions regarding which program to register for, reach out to your advisor at [email protected]
  3. Select a Term. If only one term exists, the term is already selected.
  4. If the Registration Status for your courses is "Open", select the Register button to proceed to Step 1 - Select Courses.

Step 1 - Select Courses

Review: Select Courses Page Details

In Step 1 of the Registration process, you select the courses you wish to add or drop. The page has multiple sections. Click the Expand   and Collapse   buttons to expand and collapse the sections.  Before proceeding, be sure to expand the legend for the icons used on the registration page.  Before selecting your first course, it's important to understand the sections of the Registration page.

 

Use Course Search

The page initially displays the Course Search tab which enables you to specify criteria for the course search. Click on the +  icon to add search criteria that helps you to filter the courses by clicking the Search button.

Note: The search criteria can be the Course Code or/and the values under Choose Filters.

 

Use Quick Add

The Quick Add tab enables you to specify a Course Code and Section to add to Selected Courses section. Use the Quick Add tab if you know the Course Code (required) and Section identifier of a course you wish to register for. Select Add Course to insert the course into the Selected Courses section.

Once found and all applicable prerequisites or corequisites are met, the desired course is added to the Selected Courses grid. Once the course is added, a confirmation message is displayed

If any prerequisites and/or corequisites are not met, a message appears below the Add Course button indicating why registration is not allowed.

You can return to the Course Search tab to look up more courses, or, if you know the course codes, remain on the Quick Add tab to add more courses.

 

Use All Courses

The page initially displays All Courses for your program. Generally, courses that you have already taken and passed are not displayed. Courses that you failed are available for registration if you did not attempt the course more than the maximum number of times allowed by Relay.

 

To Select Courses

In the Course Search module search for courses by selecting appropriate options from the following search criteria:

  • Type (for example, Lecture, Clinical, Capstone, or *All*)

      • If there are prerequisites or corequisites for a course section and you click the add   icon, a popup window displays details about prerequisite or corequisite courses. You cannot register into the course or be waitlisted unless all prerequisite rules including required courses, minimum grades (if required), and any testing requirements (if applicable) are met. When registering in a course that has corequisites, you must register in all corequisite courses at the same time before proceeding.
      • The R   icon before the course code refers to a Required course, whereas E   icon indicates the Elective courses. Courses that are neither elective nor required, do not have any icon before them
    4. Review your selections in the Selected Courses module.
      • If the selected course was previously added to the selection list under a different section, the following message is displayed. Click OK to dismiss.  You must unregister from the original course section before you can register for the new course section.
      • If the schedule of the selected course section conflicts with other courses already on your schedule, the following message is displayed. Select Expand to view details of a conflict. Select Yes to keep the added course on the selection grid or No to select a different section.
    5. Once you have confirmed the courses available in the Selected Courses section, you have two options:
      • Select View to go to Step 2 - View Courses [Optional], where you can review your course schedule
