Registration Instructions

Consult the Registration Checklist to be sure you are prepared to register.

Students on academic warning, academic suspension limited enrollment option, those admitted with course deficiencies, or those with Arkansas Act 1052/467 requirements should consult with their dean's offices (or if enrolled in the Fulbright College of Arts and Sciences with the Fulbright Advising Center) before seeing their advisors or attempting to register.

• Develop your proposed schedule and create an academic plan.
• Make appointment to confer with academic advisor (see Advising Resources). If you have not been assigned an advisor, ask for help in your dean's office or your academic department.

After consultation with your advisor, make any necessary revisions to your schedule.

Registration will be easier if you:

• Include correct and complete Class ID information (course prefix, course number, suffix and section number) for each class.
• Include all corequisite classes (classes that must be taken at the same time). Be sure to check the Catalog of Studies for corequisite and prerequisite classes required for the classes chosen.
• Indicate the number of credit hours for variable credit hour classes (variable credit hour classes have only three digits in the course number).
• Make sure that you have prepared a list of alternative classes, in case some of the classes you have chosen are closed or conflict with other classes in your schedule. This is especially important for students whose classification is that of junior, sophomore, or freshman. Classes taught during prime time (9:30 a.m. - 1:30 p.m.) fill quickly during registration. For the most up-to-date listing of classes, go to the Schedule of Classes.

• Check Semester Calendars for important deadlines for changing your schedule.

Those deadlines are listed in the notes in the Schedule of Classes.
