Registration and Classes

Registration

Continuing students should select their classes from the University Class Schedule and register via WebReg according to instructions provided by their School or College. Students should check with the advising office in their School for more information on the School's requirements.

New degree-seeking students must contact their School or College for registration requirements and dates. Many new students will be eligible to use WebReg, however, some may need to follow the walk-in or mail-in registration procedure using a Registration Form. First semester freshmen will register using WebReg during the Summer Freshmen Orientation or as outlined by their School or College.

Metropolitan College offers many courses for non-degree students. These students may visit their website for information. Students are considered officially registered once they have selected their classes and either settled their account or have made arrangements to settle by the payment deadline for their college.

Students should contact their School or College for further information.

Please note the University's Legal Notice regarding class registration.

Students from the School of Public Health will find more registration information on-line at the SPH website.


Class Adjustment

After registering for classes, students can adjust their schedules any time during the registration and Add/Drop period on a seats-available basis, using WebReg on the Student Link or by using a Class Adjustment Form. An instructor's signature, on a Class Adjustment Form, is required to add any classes if the class is full or closed. Eligible students may use WebReg to drop classes until the deadline for dropping with a 'W' grade. Requirements for dropping a class vary, consult your school or college.

Class Adjustment Forms are located in the School/College Administrative Offices, CAS Departments, the Office of the University Registrar, and students may also download Class Adjustment Forms to complete and submit for processing.


Please be aware of Boston University's policy regarding any student's due and/or unpaid financial obligation to the University. For more information please visit Important Notice Having Legal Consequences.
