Fall 2026 Enrollment Dates: See your enrollment date and time on MyPack and view the full enrollment calendar here. Note: Individual advising appointments are not available during enrollment. Advising tasks must be completed prior to enrollment.
One week before your enrollment date: Deadline to release advising hold. Failure to complete advising task will likely result in delayed hold release, which can inhibit fall registration.

Before you can enroll for Fall 2026, you must be advised and have your advising hold removed. How can you do it?

Pre-CODA, Academic Probation, New Transfers: Required advising meeting (in-person or virtual) - Recommend scheduling early
Enrolled in CHE 205 or 225: Option for individual advising meeting or group advising (see available dates and times here)
Enrolled in CHE 311, 312, 315, 316, and/or 435: Option for individual advising meeting, group advising, or submission of Degree Planning Worksheet.

Follow these steps:

Tip: Click "Load Suggested Plan" to add required courses easily.

Tip: Adding from "Planner Courses" is faster than searching manually!

Check prerequisites and restrictions for all planned courses.
Prepare backup course options in case a class is full.
Schedule and attend your Pre-Registration Advising Appointment, Group Advising OR submit the advising form at least one week before your enrollment date.
Enroll in your courses at your assigned time.
Triple-check your updated degree audit after enrolling

If something looks wrong, email Emily Resk immediately!

Degree Audit Check: Always cross-check your final registered courses against your Degree Audit
Swap to Waitlist: Follow these instructions if you want to join a class and the waitlist for a preferred section. Failure to follow this protocol will result in the system being unable to add you to the preferred section, as it will see you're already enrolled in the course.
Pack Planner v. Shopping Cart

Thinking about Pass-Fail options?

Only E115 and HES courses are allowed.
Accelerated Bachelor’s/Master’s Program: Learn more and contact Dr. Adriana San Miguel with questions.
Financial aid requires students to be enrolled in at least 12 credit hours and ONLY counts courses towards your major and/or minor. Check with your financial aid advisor if you have questions about your enrollment status.

GEP Reminders

Humanities GEP courses MUST be from two different disciplines. For example, you cannot take two philosophy courses and have them both count towards the 6 credit hours of Humanities requirement.
HES classes can (and should) be taken as S/U grading. I recommend changing the grading format while you are enrolling in the course so that you don’t forget.
