Registration
Comprehensive information for residential graduate students in the College of Education about the process and requirements for registering for courses.
Who is this information for?
This page is only for those graduate students who have been formally admitted to a residential program in the College of Education.
Online and Hybrid Students
Online and hybrid students should work with their assigned enrollment specialist on the procedure for registration.
ABA 4+1 Program Students
Students admitted to the ABA 4+1 program should work with their undergraduate advisor on registration while completing the undergraduate portion of the program.
International Students
International students should carefully review all of the Purdue ISS requirements for registration (Fall/Spring and Summer) and online course registration for students on an F-1 visa and students on a J-1 visa.
Deadlines
Registration begins in February for Summer courses, March for Fall courses, and October for Spring courses. Registration calendars can be found on the Office of the Registrar website. Registration will be available based on the Time Ticket group listed in your myPurdue account.
Course Drop/Add information can be found on the Registrar’s website for each term. Please be sure to closely watch these calendars and your Purdue email for registration deadline information that may impact refunds, tuition payments, withdrawal deadlines, etc.
Registration Assistance
Important Notes about Registration
The Office of Graduate Studies can assist with registration through the first week of classes in a term, and after that time, all registration changes must be submitted by the student in myPurdue through the Scheduling Assistant. Register early (by the end of the first week of classes) for at least one credit to avoid the Registrar $200 late registration fee.
Admitted students should refer to their Welcome Letter and email attachments for additional information regarding the self-registration process.
It is important that you contact your faculty advisor (indicated on your welcome letter) to discuss the courses you should be registering for as you begin your program.
