How do I register for classes?
Watch a quick video (and a one-page summary) of how to register.
Here are some points to consider:
- Most students should plan to take at least 14 credits in fall and winter and at least 9 credits in spring to qualify for scholarships.
- You must take at least 12 credits in the fall and winter and nine credits in the spring to be a full-time student.
- If you are a new international student that tests into EIL then your schedule will be planned and you will be registered after you arrive.
- Remember to leave time for lunch and time for homework.
- If possible, leave blocks of time for work. Remember to look for work that fits your class schedule.
- Know yourself and be wise about when you take classes. Don't sign up for a class that you know you will sleep through.
