It's the most wonderful time of year: registration season is here!
The only thing between you and registration serenity are these 3 steps
The 1, 2, 3s to Registration Success!
Step 1: Read the email you receive from your advisor VERY carefully
The email contains important and helpful information, like:
- A link to the Paul College registration resource page
- A link to the registration form (you'll need to download the form, fill it in, and then submit it to your advisor before your registration appointment)
- A link to make your registration appointment
- A link to a special Microsoft Form (this is where you'll upload your completed registration form in advance of your appointment)
Step 2: Before your registration appointment
- Make sure you download, complete, and upload your registration form
- Input your information in the Microsoft Form
- Upload your completed registration document to the Microsoft Form
Step 3: During your Zoom appointment
- You'll review the registration form you uploaded into Microsoft Forms with your advisor
- Your advisor will make any edits and necessary notes
- You'll receive your RAC and registration day and time!
- This is based on earned credits
- Your advisor will email you the edited registration form with your RAC

If you hit a snag, read through the following options
How do I...
- You can use this guide to get started
- Follow these steps
- You can find an easy-to-read version in WebCat
- All students will need to make an appointment with their assigned advisor. All appointments this term will be via Zoom.
- You will get your RAC during your appointment!
When Will I...
- You'll get an email with a special scheduling link--use that link to make an appointment!
- As long as you don't miss your schedule appointment time, you'll meet with your advisor before you register for classes (we promise!)
- Your registration day is based on your class year
- And, your class year is based on the number of earned credits you have
- 4/26: Seniors (90 or more earned credits)
- 4/28: Juniors (58 to 89 earned credits)
- 5/3: Sophomores (26 to 57 earned credits)
- 5/6: First-years (0 to 25 earned credits)
- The last day to file without a late fee for May 2021 graduates is March 29th
- When you're in your final minor courses, you can complete the minor certification form
- During your pre-registration appointment with your advisor
What do I do if...
- Make sure your option is declared in WebCat
- Double check any program, College, or class-year restrictions included in the course description
- Note that if a course is closed, it's full
- Still having trouble? Visit your advisor's Zoom drop-in hours on your designated registration day!
- You can hop on your advisor's Zoom link during your designated registration day
- You can add your name to the wait list form and we'll help you out!
- You can ask for advisor for advice and here is a list of some good classes
- That’s ok! Do your best on the form and you will talk it through with your advisor when you meet. You won’t actually register through WebCat until later.
- If you missed your meeting or forgot to schedule, you will need to come to drop-in day for your class. We will review your schedule and get you your RAC, but you will forfeit your priority time.
Sophomores: this is for you!
