Academic Information

Register for Classes

Each spring continuing J.D. students have access to the Student Link for course pre-selection through WebReg. This system provides students with a convenient way to access and change course information by simply logging on to the Student Link with their BU Login Name. Course Selection is a pre-registration process that allows you to select and prioritize your course preferences for the course registration lottery - it does not enroll you in classes for the following academic year.

There is no advantage to registering early (course selection is not first come, first served), however you should not wait until the last minute to make your selections. WebReg will close promptly at midnight on the published deadline. The lottery is run at the end of the course selection period and is maintained so that third-year students have preference for courses and seminars. Over the summer, the Registrar's Office will mail notification of the courses for which you are officially registered.
