When can I register?
Your opportunity to register for summer courses begins early each spring semester. Students may use the CAP (Course Adjustment Processing) tools toregister through mid-April. We encourage you to registerbetween these two dates as seating in courses is on a first-come,first-serve basis. You should be mindful that courses can be cancelledfor lack of enrollment if we don’t know about your interest. Wetypically need to make decisions of this sort about two-to-three weeksbefore courses begin. Check out the important dates page to find out more specifics.

You can change your summer course schedule, using CAP through mid-April or a paper enrollment request,through the end of business on the day the first 10% of scheduledcourse meetings conclude. Enrollment in courses is closed at the end ofthis period for each individual course section.
