Registration Requirements and Online Student Resources

Manhattanville University provides all students with a full array of online services through the University's ServiceHub system. ServiceHub is available 24 hours a day, on and off campus, and is accessible on both personal computers and mobile devices. Students access ServiceHub to register and drop classes, view schedules and grades, communicate with advisors, view unofficial transcripts, and access financial aid and tuition bill information.

Registration for our main Fall and Spring terms opens online as per the dates published on the Academic Calendar. Registration appointments are assigned to students and are visible on ServiceHub and are emailed to students during the advising period that precedes the upcoming term's registration date.

  • Undergraduates: Undergraduates may use ServiceHub to drop most courses from their schedules. However, they cannot remove every section. If an undergraduate will not be attending Manhattanville after starting registration for an upcoming term (i.e. requesting a Leave of Absence or Withdrawing from the University), they must contact the Office of Academic Advising. After appropriate forms are submitted, Academic Advising will contact the Registrar's Office to remove all courses from the registration.
  • Graduate and Doctoral Students: These students may use ServiceHub to drop all courses from their schedule before an upcoming term begins. If a graduate or doctoral student will not be attending Manhattanville University, they must remove all courses from their registration and contact their advisor or appropriate program office to alert them of their intention not to attend.

Note: Registered courses are not automatically removed from a student's schedule if they decide not to attend Manhattanville University. Please follow the course drop instructions above. Students will be held liable for tuition charges and fees for classes that remain on their registration after a term begins.

All students, including those planning to take music lessons, write senior papers or complete comprehensive examinations, independent studies or internships, must register before each fall and spring semester, each summer session and intersession. A pre-registration period for undergraduates is held during each preceding semester for scheduling convenience. Note that space availability is sometimes limited for classes and that pre-registration is strongly advised. Students register primarily via ServiceHub.

The University has a cooperative arrangement with the State University of New York (SUNY) at Purchase which allows full-time undergraduate students to cross-register for certain courses and to use the specialized library holdings (with the approval of the academic advisor and Academic Advising Office).

Manhattanville University reserves the right to make changes at any time in admission requirements, fees, charges, tuition, regulations, and academic programs, if deemed necessary, prior to the start of any class. The University also reserves the right to divide, cancel, reschedule classes, or reassign instructors if enrollment or other factors require. 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. An instructor has the right to notify the Registrar's Office to admit someone else to a limited enrollment course if a student fails to attend the first class meeting.
