Fall 2025 transfer students: Course registration reminders

  1. Act to remove any pre-registration holds in SIS. Prior to registration, confirm that any holds have been removed from your account by viewing the Tasks tile in SIS. You can click into the details to find instructions to resolve the hold.
  2. Review your preliminary transfer credit evaluation and guidance from your four-year advisor. After your summer meeting, you received a summary email discussing courses to enroll in this fall. In addition, you should review the preliminary transfer credit evaluation you received from Dean Steven P. Scherger and the Transfer and Dual Degree Student Registration Guide.
  3. Confirm that AP, IB and/or approved transfer credit is posted as you expected. You can check this in SIS in the “Grades and History” tile, and then click “Course History.” If you believe you have official AP or IB credit that is missing, first confirm that you have submitted your official scores to CWRU. You can then follow up with your four-year advisor for further support.
  4. Prepare your Shopping Cart. Before the registration period begins:
    • Review the SIS instructions on how to register from your Shopping Cart (Step 16-20)
    • Validate your Shopping Cart in SIS to double check for date/time conflicts or pre/co-requisite issues.
    • If needed, review instructions for requesting class permissions and consult with your four-year advisor before making a request
  5. Registration is currently open. If you haven’t already, return to your Shopping Cart in SIS and click “enroll” to process your registration.
    • After you register for your classes, visit your Roadmap to update your checklist and mark “Course Registration” as complete and refresh the page. 
    • If you are required to take an Academic Inquiry Seminar, you will take this course in the fall and need to take the following actions: 
      • If you selected a Topical Seminar, a new item "Academic Inquiry Seminar Placement Times" will activate to allow you to indicate your interests.
      • If you selected Foundations Seminar or Seminar for Non-Native Speakers of English, you will be placed in a section that fits your schedule, and you do not need to take any further action.

During the first-year student registration period, July 22 to 24, you will not be able to log in to SIS and make any changes to your schedule. Additionally, due to scheduled maintenance, SIS will be unavailable to all users at the end of the day, Friday, July 25, until Monday, July 28. During this time, you will not be able to log in to SIS to view your schedule or other student details.
