This feature also shows the campus to which you are assigned (important if you are attempting to register for online classes), and any registration overrides you have been given by faculty.

  9. Use the Browse for Classes feature to find open classes.

  10. Use the Register-Add/Drop/Withdraw to search for and add classes to your worksheet/plan or register for the classes. Or, enter course reference numbers directly in the Enter CRNs tab (use this if you have a closed-class override).

  12. Submit your registration.


If you are not able to complete registration for any course reference number, the system will display the reason. If you contact an instructor for registration overrides, you must provide the error message information so the correct overrides can be assigned for you.The override provifed by the instructor must match the registration error.

Also, be aware that registration overrides do NOT extend the add/drop deadline for registering online. After add/drop for any session, registrations must be manually processed by the Registrar's Office and require a completed add/drop form with instructor permission for late registration.
