Registration Menu

Select the term and click on Submit Term.

• Add/Drop Classes
Enter the Course Reference Number (CRN) for each class you want to add. If you do not know the CRN for a class, you can search for classes by clicking on Class Search. When you have entered the CRNs of all the classes in which you want to enroll, click on Submit Changes. To drop a class, select Drop Via the Web from the pull down menu in the Action column. Remember to click on Submit Changes after dropping a class.  
• Search for Classes
Search for classes by subject, title key word, number, begin or end time, or days of the week. SISWeb displays the open sections that match your information. For the fastest, broadest search, search by subject only. Enter information in more fields to narrow the search. Broad searches will return the most results and may take a few minutes to complete. When you find a class in which you wish to enroll, select the class, then click on Add to Worksheet to enter the CRN on your Add Classes worksheet. When you have entered the CRNs for all the classes in which you wish to enroll, click on Submit Changes.
