Priority Registration Begins Today! | |
Priority Registration begins today, Monday, November 18, and ends Friday, November 29. This first phase of registration is a two-week period when you may request and prioritize up to three courses. Priority Registration increases your chances of getting the course(s) you want. Remember that the waitlist is now ordered by the date and time that a course was initially processed. Getting priority requests in early only impacts the waitlist, not the computerized lottery. View our Priority Registration Guide or watch our Priority Registration tutorial on YouTube for more information.
Course assignments will be sent out on Friday, December 6 and Open Registration begins on Monday, December 9.
