• You cannot register before or after your appointment. Make sure your Enrollment Appointment has begun before trying to add a class.
• You cannot register without an Enrollment Appointment. If an appointment for the current semester does not appear on your Enrollment Dates page, and you are an active student, contact the Undergraduate Registrar's Office (213 Whitmore, 413.545.0555) or the Graduate School (532 Goodell, 413.545.0024) for assistance. Note: For the Summer 2008 term, University day students should use SPIRE to request a CPE Enrollment Appointment and to register for classes.

1. In the left Menu, go to Enrollment > Enrollment Appointment. The Enrollment Dates page for the current term will open.
2. On the Enrollment Dates page, in the Open Enrollment Dates by Session table, review the start and end dates for the University session, and any other sessions as appropriate. Note: The Add Classes button is not available at this time. To start adding classes, in the left Menu, go to Enrollment > Add Classes.

Undergraduates

Seniors have appointments that begin before Juniors, Juniors before Sophomores, and Sophomores before Freshmen. These academic levels are defined by the total number of credits the student has completed to date, a minimum of:

• 87 credits for Seniors
• 57 for Juniors
• 27 for Sophomores

Graduate Students

All degree-seeking graduate students have the same Enrollment Appointment. Pre-register as early in the pre-registration period as possible, especially if attempting to enroll in any undergraduate or limited-access courses. As loan excess and stipend checks will be delayed if you are not registered, it is much more important for you to register early than in previous years.

You are limited in how many units (credits) you may register for. There is also a similar, but separate limit for how many credits’ worth of waitlists you can be on.

Credit limits are strictly enforced and no credit overloads are approved before the start of the semester. Undergraduates seeking overloads must petition their Academic Dean. Graduate students must contact their Graduate Program Director. There will be no exceptions to waiting list maximums at any time.

The credit limit for undergraduate students who have requested part-time billing status is lower than the credit limit for full-time students. If your billing status plans have changed, notify the Undergraduate Registrar's Office (213 Whitmore, 413.545.0555) or the Graduate School (532 Goodell, 413.545.0024).
