Registration Activities

• Read "Advising & Course Registration:  A Guide for First Year Students" (visit our main site for new students for PDF versions and accessible text versions of this guide).
• Sign up for and attend an advising session if needed.
• Take a placement test if you are not sure what level of a course to place yourself in (not required but encouraged).
• Review the "Exploring and Declaring Majors" page on our website.
