While you are preparing for registration, here are a few things to keep in mind:

You should have a curriculum sheet that you are filling out as you take classes---be sure to take it with you to your advisor appointment. Click here for the GSW’s curriculum sheets.

2. Check your records on RAIN to determine if advisement is required prior to registration. There will be a registration hold on students requiring advisement which can be seen by logging into the secured site of RAIN, clicking on Student Services and Financial Aid, going toStudent Records, and then clicking on View Holds.  Advisement should be completed 48 hours prior to the time online registration is permitted according to your class. Once the advisement hold is removed, you should be able to register yourself online (with the exception of Learning Support and Transient students).

3. Clear all holds that may prevent registration (immunization requirements, parking tickets, etc.). Holds are placed on student records by individual departments. Contact the department listed on the hold for more information.

4. To request overrides for registration add errors (prerequisites, closed classes, etc.) you should contact the dean/chair of the school/department where the class is being taught.

5. General Education majors who have determined their degree path are encouraged to submit a completed Major/Advisor Change form to the Registrar's Office. It is important that students seek advisement from an advisor in their intended major.
