Online Registration Instructions

You may enter your own schedule online from your personal computer or from a computer anywhere on campus.

1. Meet with your Advisor March 21 - April 2. Your advisor must go into your My.GeorgetownCollege.edu record and click on the "Registration Clearance" button. You cannot access your registration screen until your advisor releases you to register.  You have been assigned a group number, day and time when you can register.  Your advisor has that information on the advising materials.
2. Select Classes. Discuss with your advisor courses appropriate for Fall 2011; include alternatives. Fill out the registration form and leave a copy with your advisor. Request an Approval Form from your advisor for signatures for internship, independent study, tutorials or to register for over 18 hrs. Bring the form to the Office of the Registrar for entry.
3. Directions for online Registration:

Materials to Use: When you enter your schedule on the day set aside for you, have a copy of the Fall 2011 Schedule of Classes, your list of approved courses, and your advising notes. Find a Computer. Call the HELP Desk if you do not have a log-in.

• When to Register?
  • Students have been divided into 8 groups of about 150-200 students each. These groups are based upon the total of both your earned hours + hours in progress currently. This enhancement will limit the number of simultaneous my.georgetowncollege.edu hits during registration and should keep the system from slowing down. On each day of registration, there will be two registration groups that will register; one group begins at 7:00 a.m. and the next group will begin at 7:30 a.m.
  • Each semester there is at least one registration group that has a larger number because all the students in the group have the same total hours. In order to reduce the size of these larger groups, each student has been assigned a random number by the computer system. If a larger group does occur, the system will then divide the students in this larger group (lowest random number to highest random number) into two groups instead of one. These random numbers will change each semester.
  • Look on your printed registration form for your date and time to register. (Also, you may find your day and time on your my.georgetowncollege.edu registration screen.)
  • Online Registration opens for each group at 7:00 a.m. Starting Monday, April 4, 2011.
  • Once your window is open, it will remain open until Midnight Sunday, April 10, 2011.
