Registration

Advising

Registration Advising is the period of time in the semester during which currently-enrolled students sign up for the next semester's courses.

What is Registration Advising?

UNCW requires that all students meet with their academic advisors before they can register for courses. Your academic advisor will give you a special PIN that will allow you to use the registration system to register for classes. It is important to meet with your advisor even if you have planned your course selections already.

Each semester, your assigned academic advisor will review your Degree Audit and requirements you still have to complete before graduation. After you declare a major, the Degree Audit will also reflect your major requirements. Your advisor will answer questions, discuss progress in currently enrolled courses, and check the appropriateness of courses selected for the following semester.

When is Registration?

For Spring Registration, students usually meet with their advisors after fall break and register during the first or second week of November. 

For Fall Registration, students usually meet with their advisors after spring break and register during the beginning of April. Students may also sign up for both summer sessions as well as the fall semester.
