At the University of Delaware, students can use several online tools to plan and register for classes each term. Course offerings are published online in .pdf format and are also searchable by year or by semester. Registration for the Fall, Winter Session and Spring terms occur at scheduled times - Early Registration(by appointment) and Open Enrollment(after scheduled appointments). Summer Sessions do not require appointments to enroll for courses. Information for classes available during Winter and Summer Sessions can be found here.
During Early Registration, students create and edit their class schedules during their assigned appointments. Open enrollment periods (Free Drop/Add) typically follow the appointment dates and run through the tenth day of the semester EXCEPT during New Student Orientation (typically beginning June 1 through August 1) when the registration window for Fall Semester is closed (undergraduate students only). When necessary, students can make changes to their class schedules until the Academic Penalty date, but are charged a fee. Withdrawals from courses are not given a tuition refund after the Free Drop/Add period has ended. In unusual situations, students can request changes even after the Academic Penalty date, but must get proper approvals. Contact your Student Service/Assistant Dean's Office.
Registration appointments are available approximately 10 days before registration begins. To find your appointment, login to UDSIS. The blue Enrollment Dates box on the right lists your Registration appointment day and time. Students can register or drop courses or make changes (change grading basis or credits taken, when applicable) online using our Web Registration (WebReg) tool. Some requests require use of the Course Permit form which is available beginning the first day of the semester. When registering for a course that needs permission, please contact the department that offers the course prior to attempting to register. Information about permissions is listed under "notes" in the Course Search feature and is also reported in WebReg.
See Standards Regarding Registration Holds and Class Attendance for important details on account holds that may block registration and policies regarding class attendance.
After reviewing course offerings for the term, students should talk with their advisors prior to registering for classes. Advisor information can also be found online in UDSIS in the blue Advisor box on the right. Students should also keep in mind any restrictions or permissions needed for specific courses which are usually detailed in the course descriptions. Students must meet prerequisite requirements prior to the start of any class that has a prerequisite. Students who have not met the prerequisite by the start of the semester are subject to being dropped from the course.
