  4. System Busy – The system is busy and you will have to login again to my.georgetowncollege.edu after waiting five to ten minutes. At the beginning of your registration time, the system will be slower due to many users accessing at once.
  5. Reload – Try to Click on Refresh or Reload your browser. This will redraw the screen if parts of it are missing or disappear during registration of your courses.

How do I know when to register?

Your registration time is based upon your currently earned hours plus the hours you are currently registered for at the time of registration. The students are then divided into seven to eight registration groups consisting of 150-200 students each. Students have also been assigned a random number to aid in situations when there are too many students in a group with the same hourly totals. The students are then selected in ascending order by random number to help divide a large registration group.

Your printed Registration Form, which you receive when being cleared by your Advisor, has registration time and date printed on the upper right of the form. On the My.GeorgetownCollege.edu Registration screen it will also display your registration date and time.
