REGISTERING FOR
CLASSES
Registration announcement emails are sent out approximately prior to the
registration date. YOU MUST REGISTER FOR YOUR CLASSES ON TIME.
IF YOU KNOW THAT YOU WILL BE AWAY DURING THE CLASS REGISTRATION PERIOD,
CONTACT THE GRADUATE PROGRAM OFFICE PRIOR TO YOUR LEAVING SO THAT
APPROPRIATE ARRANGEMENTS CAN BE MADE.
Students
may register by telephone or on-line. To register by phone, call 5-9600
from on-campus or 930-0087 from off-campus. You will then need to enter
your social security number and your personal identification number (PIN)
(the first time you register it will be set to your birthday, the first
two digits are the month and the second two digits the date).

IMPORTANT
NOTE: If registration is on time, you will be exempt from paying FICA
taxes; however, if registration is late, FICA taxes will be deducted from
your paycheck. In addition, late registration results in a loss of
tuition rebate from the department to your mentor. Late registration
cannot be done online or by phone – only in person.
