Fall 2024 course registration will open for first-year undergraduates on Tuesday, April 16, at 7 a.m. ET. This information is also listed in SIS in the “Classes & Enrollment tile.” Interested students can also register for summer 2024 courses, which opened on April 1.
To prepare for a successful registration, follow the steps below:
Act to remove any pre-registration holds in SIS
Prior to registration, check SIS to see if you have any holds on your account that will prevent you from registering. After logging in to SIS, you can view possible holds in the “Tasks” tile. Possible holds could include:
- Major declaration hold: This hold will be removed when your completed major declaration form is submitted and processed in SIS. Remember that students who started at CWRU in fall 2023 must declare their major in order to register for summer/fall 2024 courses.
- Registration advising hold: To remove this hold, meet with your major advisor. After meeting to discuss your fall classes, they will lift your registration advising hold. Your four-year advisor CANNOT lift your registration advising hold.
- Explore hold: To remove this hold, you must complete the required Explore Program events (six if you started at CWRU in fall 2023, with at least one in each of three categories; two if you started at CWRU this spring 2024). You can register for events via CampusGroups; don’t forget to “check-in” at your event via the unique QR code provided by the host. To track your progress, go to your CampusGroups homepage, select “My Activity” from the menu column on the left, followed by “My Checklists.” Scroll down to Explore. This works best using a computer, rather than a mobile device. If you have questions, please reach out to explore@case.edu.
- Past Due Balance Hold: If you haven’t already, please contact Student Financial Services to discuss arrangements to address this hold. You can also consult with a counselor in University Financial Aid to explore available options for assistance. For a full list of financial holds and how to resolve them, please visit the Student Financial Services website.
Build your schedule in advance and check for conflicts
As you are put together your schedule, use your “Shopping Cart” to identify the courses you plan to take. You can also use Stellic—the new degree-planning tool in SIS—to track completed degree requirements and plan future semesters. Access Stellic by logging into SIS:
- Click the “Academics” tile
- Click the “Academic Progress” tile
- Choose “My Academic Requirements” from the menu on the left
- Select the career “Undergraduate” and then click “View”
- Stellic will open in a new tab on your internet browser
Step-by-step guides and video resources are available on the University Registrar’s Degree Planning for Students page.
Be mindful of courses that may have variable credit hours. When you attempt to register for a variable credit hour course, there is a drop down menu where you can choose the specific number of credits. It always defaults to the lowest possible value.
Request permissions for courses, if applicable
If you are planning to register for a course that requires permission (instructor consent, closed course, requisites or time conflict), remember that you can submit a permission request in SIS. A permission request requires that you provide the instructor with details of your circumstances and the reason for your request.
If you have questions about course registration, holds or procedures to follow in SIS, please contact your faculty advisor or four-year advisor for assistance.
