Instructions for Early Registration Advising Appointments for Undeclared Students

1. Using the profile on faculty advisors, select an advisor with whom you would like to meet to discuss your fall course selections.

2. Once you have chosen an advisor, call or stop by the CAS Academic Advising Center to make an advising appointment between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday.

CAS Academic Advising Center
725 Commonwealth Ave., Room 105
617-353-2400

3. If you do not already have a copy of the 2008/2009 Undergraduate Bulletin, you may pick one up at the Office of the University Registrar or access this information on Boston University’s Student Link.

4. Using the Undergraduate Bulletin, select classes which you would like to take next semester. Before meeting with your advisor, you must fill out the Early Registration Advising Form for Undeclared Students and have selected at least six possible courses which you would like to take in the fall.

5. Come to your advising appointment a little early. If you come late, your advisor may not be
able to meet with you. Bring your completed Early Registration Advising form.

6. Meet with your advisor.

7. Your advisor should sign the Early Registration Form before you depart. The Early
Registration Form can be used only for WEBREG. If you choose to register in person, you must use the University Registration Form, available in the Registrar’s Office at 881 Commonwealth Avenue or on the web at www.bu.edu/reg.

8. Take your signed form to the front desk in Room 105 and ask for your Academic Advising
Code (AAC). Your advisor’s signature will authorize the release of this code to you. With the
code you will be assigned a registration time. You will not be able to register without this code.

9. Using your signed Early Registration Form and the Class Schedule, you will be able to
choose sections and times for your courses. The Class Schedule may be viewed on line at http://www.bu.edu/reg. Please note that you can plan ahead using the WebReg Planner. This function on the Student Link allows you to choose your classes in advance of the official registration date. The Planner can be used to select and adjust your classes prior to registration. The Planner saves your selections until you go back and move them to your schedule. This can be done once the registration period begins.

10. Using your Academic Advising Code (AAC), directions to access WEBREG (available at the Registrar’s Office or on the Student Link), your login and Kerberos password you can log on to WEBREG to register for your classes. You may review your course registration on the Student Link.

11. Keep your Academic Advising Code (AAC) for the duration of the following semester. It will enable you to make changes to your schedule prior to the beginning of classes and to drop classes once the semester has started.

12. Please be advised that you may only register for a class by WEBREG until the day
classes begin. Also, if you choose to register that late, you will be assessed a late registration fee and you will enjoy fewer options for choosing your schedule.
