How to register for classes

2. Select Registration, then Register for Classes 
   
    
3. Select a term. Please note that there is a known defect with the top item in the Term drop down. The label is very light, which makes it nearly invisible. Click on the top row even if you cannot see anything. The issue should be resolved soon.
   
   
    
4. There are three tabs available on the next page: Find Classes, Enter CRNs, and Schedule and Options. If you know CRNs, select the Enter CRNs tab and enter them one at a time.
   
    
5. If you need to search for classes, use the Find Classes tab. On the search result page, pick a class and click Add.
