Second-semester Registration Process for Current Students

Step 1: Prepare for registration, find out relevant dates
Step 2: Schedule a group advising or individual appointment with your Advisor
  • Look for email communication from your advisor to schedule an appointment
  • Use the direct link provided in the email from your advisor or the yellow bar that populates within the Navigate Home Screen when it is time to schedule your appointment
  • If you are currently enrolled in the Argos First or the Foundations for Academic Success class, you may not have received an email from your advisor since this information will be reviewed with you at a different time
Step 3: Go to your advising appointment to create your class schedule
  • During your advising appointment, you and your advisor will discuss courses. Your advisor will release your advising PIN so you can register for classes on your own after your first semester.
  • Create a schedule in Plan Ahead
Step 4: Register for your classes
