I don’t have my registration PIN. Where do I get that?

You must meet with your academic advisor prior to registration week. Your advisor will give you your Registration PIN, which is required for online registration. (Students who have not declared a major should contact Barbi Rouse for advising.) If you have forgotten or lost your Registration PIN, contact the Records Office.

Access will only let me register for 18 units. How can I register for more?

If you wish to register for more than 18 units you will need to complete an Add form (available at the Records Office), procure the signature of the Divisional Chairperson from the division of your major, and return the form to Records for processing. The Records Office will notify you when/if the additional units have been added to your schedule.

Where do I get a permission number to add certain courses?

Certain courses require a permission number before you can add them to your schedule. To obtain a permission number for the course(s), contact the department offering the course(s).
