An Enrollment Verification is used by insurance companies, loan agencies, businesses, etc. to prove that you are an enrolled student.  At Muhlenberg there are three ways to get an Enrollment Verification.

1. Students may print their own Enrollment Verifications.  Sign in to the school’s secure online site (CapStone), click on the link to Student Self-Serve, and follow the directions.
2. Contact the National Student Clearinghouse to provide a verification.
3. Complete and submit an Enrollment Verification form to the Office of the Registrar.

The Dean of the College for Academic Life assigns each first-year student a Faculty Advisor after June Advising.  These advisors are typically assigned according to the First-Year Seminar that is registered.  When the student declares a major field of study, the department chair or program director will assign an advisor from within the department/program. The student may also request a particular professor to be his or her advisor. This request may be granted as long as both the requested professor and the department chair/program director agree to such an arrangement. Department Chairs, Program Directors, and the Registrar oversee the reassignment of advisees from faculty who are on sabbatical, other leaves, or have left the College.

Advising is a vital and on-going enterprise at Muhlenberg. It should not occur only when registration materials are issued and you need an approval. Be in regular contact with your advisor. S/he is critical to your experience here at the College.

You may find out who your Advisor is by logging in to CapStone Online, going to Directory Information and choosing Advising Information from the drop down list.

Registration occurs in November (for spring) and in April (for fall).  More specific information is available on the Office of the Registrar web site.

A registration hold indicates that you will not be permitted to register because you have an outstanding obligation, financial (tuition balances, parking or library fines, equipment, simplex or fire safety violation bills) or otherwise, to the College.

You can check the Financial Records section of CapStone Online to view your status or stop by the Office of the Registrar to find out if a hold has been placed on your records.  In addition, notices are regularly sent to you about your obligations here at the College by the appropriate offices.  DO NOT IGNORE THEM! 

Outstanding obligations should be resolved with the appropriate College office (Athletics, Campus Safety, Controller, Dean of Students, Library, Residential Services) prior to registration.

Your opportunity to register begins at the time designated in the registration table.  It will not end until the add/drop period concludes each semester.  So, if you cannot register exactly at your start time, just do it as soon after your time as you can. 

First, see if you can substitute an alternate section of the same course. The meeting times or the instructor may not be the same, but the objectives and the subject matter definitely will be.

Next, consider the alternate courses you listed.

Finally, if you feel you must have a particular course, visit the offering department.  The department may have started a waiting list or they may be able to adjust enrollment limits where circumstances warrant.

You can change your course schedule any time after you register until the add/drop period concludes on the 8th class day of each semester.  Consult the academic calendar for the exact date each semester.

Students may add and drop classes using online registration. No permission is needed unless there is a problem with course you want to add (i.e. closed, missing pre-req, etc.)

Yes. Make sure you get prior approval for each school and the course(s) you wish to take. You need the Transfer Course Authorization form which you can get online or in the Registrar’s Office. Take the form and the course description(s) to the appropriate department chair for approval.  Make sure to send your official transcript when you are done with the course.  C- or better is required for transfer.
