Instructions & Tips

Keep the following points in mind as you prepare to register for courses:

• You can only register for one section of the same course in a single semester. The system will reject a second section of the same class.
• Courses taught entirely on ground, in the campus classrooms, have section numbers 100-299.
• Section numbers from 180 to 190 are offered at locations abroad.
• Section numbers in the 700's are taught online, those in the 740 range are restricted to students with 30+ credits. All other major and/or prerequisite restrictions still apply.
• If you are taking a Physical Education course, be certain to leave plenty of time in your schedule for cooling down, showering and/or getting across campus to your next class from the McCann Center.
• Try to spread class-meeting days throughout the week to avoid fatigue and an overload of preparations for any given class day.
• A full-time undergraduate student will carry from 12 to 16 credits per semester. One lecture credit meets for 50 minutes for 15 weeks (or its equivalent). One laboratory or clinical credit meets for 150 minutes for 15 weeks (or its equivalent). Your full-time tuition charge covers this range of 12 to 16 credits. You may attempt to take more than 16 credits in a given semester if you have discussed this with your advisor. If you wish to enroll in more than 18 credits in a given semester, you must also have permission from The Center for Advising and Academic Services - you can contact them at Advising@Marist.edu. Be advised that you will be charged by the credit hour for every credit over 16.
• If you need to make adjustments to your schedule after the initial registration period, you may do so during the add/drop period during the first week of classes in each semester.
• Pay close attention to published deadlines to avoid serious academic and financial penalties. Marist will make every effort to remind you of the important dates and deadlines, but in the end, it is your responsibility to know the deadlines and to meet them.
