Priority Registration for Summer 2011 and Fall Semester 2011

Student Time Windows

Priority registration is scheduled to open on Wednesday, March 30, 2011, for Summer 2011 (including May intersession, all summer terms, and August intersession) and for the Fall Semester 2011. As has been the case in previous semesters, each student is assigned a time window which indicates the time of day and the date on which he or she may begin registering for classes. The time windows of students are assigned based on classification with seniors being allowed to register before juniors, juniors before sophomores, and sophomores before freshmen.

Prerequisite checking "went live" in December 2005. Read more about this change in the registration process.

Academic Advising and Advisor Holds

Each student having a program in the College of Liberal Arts is assigned an advisor based upon the student's program of study. Immediately before the priority registration period, an advisor hold will automatically be placed on each student's account. This advisor hold will prevent the student from registering for classes.

In order for the advisor hold to be lifted, a student must be advised by his or her academic advisor. Each department within the College of Liberal Arts determines how academic advising is handled. To have the advising hold lifted, each student must meet with an advisor. The name and contact information of the advisor is available through myOleMiss (formerly UM Online Services).
