Add a Class
Before You Begin...
The students register for classes via the Student Schedule & Registration link on myUMBC or the Schedule Builder tool. The steps below outline the procedure the student follows to add a class to their schedule using the manual registration process. The steps begin after logging into myUMBC. Note that as a Faculty or Staff role at UMBC, you do not have the same link within your Classes & Grades topic on myUMBC.
Note that the student can only register for classes after they have received advising authorization from their advisor and after the registration for the current term is available.
Step by Step
From myUMBC, select Profile > Registration.
Select the Student Schedule & Registration link. The registration page in PeopleSoft is opened.
Select the Class Search link.
Select a term, and any additional search criteria that you want to use, then click Search. Select More Filters for additional search options.
Click on a course section displayed in the search results below the search filters. This will expand details for that section. Then click Enroll.
Make changes to your enrollment options if available. For example, some courses allow you to change the number of credits or grade method, or to elect to be waitlisted for the course if it fills before your enrollment transaction is completed.
Click Save.
Your enrollment results will be displayed. If you have successfully enrolled in the course, the message will read, "This class has been added to your schedule."
The confirmation page displays a green icon indicating you are successfully enrolled in a class. A red icon indicates an error and that you are not enrolled in the class.
SA Tip
Students can search for GEP requirements when searching for classes to select. The GEP requirements search option is located within the General Education Requirements Selection section, which is located at the bottom of the page.
