Fall 2023 Registration

No, pre-college testing credits like AP or IB are not included in the calculation of credit based registration groups. 

You can find seats using the full course schedule:

• Scroll down to find available seats.
• Subtract ‘Reserved Incoming’ and ‘Reserved Cont.’ columns from ‘Seats Avail’ column.
  • seats assigned in the Reserved Incoming column are for incoming Fall 2023 first-year students.
  • seats assigned in the Reserved Continuing column are for second-semester first-year students.
• When Seats Avail shows, WL – a wait list has started; the only way to register for this class is during the Add/Drop period with ‘Instructor Approval’.
• Additional helpful registration tips can be found on this page.

If you are already registered for the course:

• Ask the faculty member to enter an approval in Banner for the new lab, discussion, or drill. 

• Once the approval is entered, log in to Banner 9

• On the Enter CRNs tab, enter the CRN for the new section and click Add to Summary. 

• In your Summary panel, locate the lab, discussion, or drill you want to drop and click drop in the Action box,

• Click submit.

Students cannot add two courses to their schedule that begin or end at the same time during web registration.
Once Add/Drop begins, students are required to obtain permission from both faculty members whose courses over-lap before registering.  If approved, the faculty of the course to be added can enter a “Waive Time Conflict” override for the student in Banner.
Once the student obtains all approvals and the time conflict waiver, they can register for the course in their Banner.

1) Do you have a time ticket for Fall registration? Check the Prepare for Registration app in Banner 9 to see all course approvals by term.

2) Is there a required discussion or lab?  You have to register for all parts of a course together.

3) Do you have a time conflict?  You cannot register for two courses that meet at the same time (even if one ends and the other begins at the same time).

4) Are you trying to register for two 500s or two 700s (or a combo of each)?  Send an email to registrar@middlebury.edu and we will register you in the second 0500/0700 course.

5) Have you taken the course or its equivalent before?  Email registrar@middlebury.edu
