Course Registration
Register Online
All students should register for or drop courses through Student Planning in Self-Service. Undergraduate students are required to meet with their advisor before registering. Students should also verify that their account is in good standing to avoid any registration issues.
Students create their academic plans by searching for current course offerings in Student Planning in Self-Service. Before registering for the next semester, you should consult with your faculty advisor to plan your schedule based on available courses.
Register via Add/Drop Form*
*If you receive an error that prevents you from registering for certain courses in Self-Service, read the message carefully for instructions on how to resolve it. If you believe the error is incorrect, contact Registrar@northpark.edu.
