Registration Tips

Registration Tips

• Only use ONE browser, and only ONE window. The
  system will detect if you try to add/drop classes
  with multiple accounts. Dont have your friends
  log in with another computer, dont use Firefox
  Internet Explorer. Just ONE window.
• It will be fast many current 2Ls finished in
  less than a minute.
• If you get an error message, you must log
  completely out before reinitiating the add/drop.
• Have your CRN numbers ready for quick copying.

More tips

• Check the current class openings v. class size
  you may want to register for the classes that are
  almost full first (as in, right when 1201 hits),
  then add the other classes after the initial
  rush.
• Remember classes will adjust, especially once
  adjuncts are released. If you really want a
  class add your name to the waitlist.
