Registration and Waitlist Procedures

REGISTRATION

Every student is required to register when entering the university and thereafter as announced by the registrar. Undergraduate Advising Office academic advisors and upper level major academic advisors offer preregistration advising.

A preregistration period is held for currently enrolled students to register for the next semester during the fall and spring semesters, in November and April, respectively. The Office of the Registrar, registrar.tamu.edu/, assigns individual registration times. Students can use the Howdy → My Profile icon (approximately mid- to late March and mid- to late October) to view

their assigned registration times.

For questions about the assigned registration times contact Registration: 979.845.1003 or registration@tamu.edu.

Registration Holds. Students can use the Howdy → My Profile icon to check for registration, transcript, or graduation holds. Departments have the ability to place holds on students’ records to prevent registering for classes. The type of hold placed on a student’s record determines if a student will be able to register for classes.

WAITLIST REGISTRATION PROCEDURES

A student unable to register for a course because no seats are available, may be able to request “waitlist” registration. Departments may elect to offer waitlist registration. Each

department establishes its own rules about waitlist

registration. Before requesting waitlist registration meet with an academic advisor about course scheduling options.

Students requesting waitlist registration into a Mays Business School course must follow rules, guidelines, and deadlines of the offering department:
