Advising and Registration

Students are strongly recommended to consult with their academic advisor or their program director each semester to discuss their degree plan, pacing through the program, and to stay on track to graduate. For spring semester course registration, advising typically occurs in October and November, with registration beginning in the middle of November. For fall courses, advising takes place in March and April, with registration beginning in the middle of April. In most cases, students will register for classes themselves online via Student Planning. 

School of Education students enrolling in practica must be approved by the Graduate Advising Office, and enrollment in student teaching courses must be approved by the Office of Field Placement. Enrollment in internship requires the approval of the Center for Career Development. Students are advised to register in a timely fashion each semester. 

Students who are not registered may not attend classes. Registration Conditions: The University reserves the right to divide, cancel, or reschedule classes or reassign instructors. If course cancellations occur, students will be notified in order to adjust their schedules. Places in limited enrollment courses cannot be held after classes begin. Academic Advising, in consultation with faculty, has the right to notify the Registrar’s Office to admit students to limited enrollment courses.

Wait List Policy

Students may place themselves on a wait list for a closed class at any time once registration opens, up to the official Add/Drop date for that semester. When and if seats in that class become available, students will be notified in the chronological order in which they were added to the wait list, by email to their Manhattanville student email addresses, that they may proceed to register. Such students must officially register themselves on Service Hub within 48 hours or that seat will be given to the next student on the wait list.

Students who are not registered may not attend classes.
