Students are assigned registration times and dates for the fall and winter semesters; the summer sessions have open enrollment. Registration begins with graduate, post baccalaureate, seniors and vocational students. Juniors, sophomores and returning freshmen follow during a week long pre-registration period. Your assigned registration time is based on your class standing and how many credit hours you have completed. The designated registration dates and times are e-mailed to currently enrolled students prior to registration. Registration dates and times are also posted on the registration week schedule and available on My.NMU.
New freshmen and transfer students register for courses during the new student orientation program.

After submitting the semester of registration, you are encouraged to completely review the full registration screen that comes up, which will familiarize you with your course registration search options.
