Registration for Incoming Students
Familiarize yourself with this important information as you prepare for your first fall semester at Muhlenberg.
Before You Register
Registration for incoming first-year students in the Class of 2030 will take place in Workday.
The typical enrollment per semester is 4 units. First-year students in their first semester may register a maximum of 4.5 units.
All students must register for a first-year seminar (FYS) in the fall semester plus at least three other courses. If you are a member of the Emerging Leaders or the RJ Fellows, be sure to register for the FYS designated for your program.
All students must register for Foundations of Student Success (PPD 050). This 0 unit course will not count toward your 4.5 unit limit.
After You Register
Changes to FYS registration may only be made through August 1, as your enrollment in this course determines your academic advisor. Changes to all other registered courses may be made through the end of the add/drop period.
If you are waitlisted for any of your courses:
- Register for backup courses to bring you up to at least 4 units. There is no guarantee that you will receive a seat in the waitlisted course.
- Be sure to monitor your Muhlenberg email address, which is where notifications about available seats will be delivered. Students have 24 hours to respond to any waitlist seat available before the seat is offered to another student.
- If you no longer want a seat in a course you are waitlisted for, please drop yourself from the waitlist as a courtesy to other students who want seats.
