It is time to start preparing for Fall 2016 registration. All students must meet with an advisor to receive registration clearance for fall classes. You may view the registration dates on the Registrar's website. In order to register on this date, you must meet with an advisor prior to this date to get registration clearance. Students do not need special clearance to register for summer classes. Summer registration opens for all students on March 21st.
Please read the instructions below for information about how to sign up for your advising appointment.
If you are currently enrolled in LRC 99, MATH 106, or do not have a math placement, you will be advised by the Office of Academic and Pre-Professional Advising in the Academic Services Building, Room 103.
Prior to your appointment:
1. Please review your scheduling options by looking over the schedule of classes, available starting on March 28th, on the UMBC website HERE.
2. Review your degree audit – major and general education/foundation requirements, so that you are aware of the courses still needed to complete your degree requirements. Learn more about your degree audit HERE.
3. Review the sample 4-year plan for your major to determine where you are in the recommended sequence of courses. HERE
4. Check the Gateway requirements for your major and determine where you are in relation to the completion of this requirement. HERE
5. Come prepared to your appointment with a list of courses you intend to take in Fall 2016.
After your advising appointment, you will have clearance to register for classes. However, you will not be able to register until your assigned registration time. Your registration time is the earliest date and time that you may register for classes. For information about registration times, please go HERE, or check the banner on the top of your myUMBC page. If you have not attended an advising appointment, you will not be able to register when your registration time occurs.
If you have a hold on your account, it is still important that you sign up for an advising appointment. Meeting with an advisor in advance of registration means that you will not have to worry about getting advising clearance once your hold is lifted.
All Majors - Gateway not Yet Completed
Students majoring in Pre-Computer Science/Computer Science, Pre-Computer Engineering/Computer Engineering, Pre-Mechanical Engineering, Pre-Chemical Engineering, and Pre-Engineering must meet with an academic advisor in the office of Undergraduate Student Services in the College of Engineering and Information Technology. Location: ITE Building Rooms 202-206. Phone: 410-455-3096. Advising staff: Josh Abrams (josh.abrams@umbc.edu), Anne Arey (annearey@umbc.edu), and Emily Stephens (eastephe@umbc.edu).
