Registration

Registration time is a very important part of college. Make sure that you know what classes you intend to take well before your registration time. This is so you can be prepared to register for it before classes fills up. Classes may even fill up before you even get to register.

Registration Time
"Appointment times are available in October for spring registration and March for fall registration, approximately 2 to 3 weeks before registration begins." [1 ]

To check your registration time, go to myStudentRecord. Then, Secure login -> Student records -> MyRegistration -> Check Your Registration Status and Appointment Time and select semester.

The more units you have, the earlier your registration time is (with a few rare exceptions).

Choosing your Courses
Use https://catalog.ucmerced.edu/ and find your major by clicking on your school on the left and select your major. Look through and try to understand the requirements for your major. Then, you can create a plan for what courses to take. Go to myDegreePath and create a new plan for your major.

Picking Class Times
Once you have decided which courses to take, you can figure out which specific sections to take using https://bobcatcourses.tk/.

If you have a time conflict in your class or final exam schedule that you would like overridden, fill out this form.
