It can be tempting to put off thinking about the upcoming academic year, however taking a few minutes to prepare for registration, and registering for your courses early helps to ensure that you are able to take the courses that you need to take for your degree and that you are most interested-in.
Before registration opens, be sure to:
Check your Timeticket
