How to Register for Your Courses

Credit Courses

If you are new to the College or returning after an absence of two years or more, you must submit an application for admission as a first step. Your acceptance materials will provide next steps to a successful registration. Visit our Enrollment Steps for detailed enrollment steps.

Current students are encouraged to make an appointment with their assigned academic advisor. You can find your academic advisor’s name and email address in Degree Works (under APPs in delaGATE).

If you are unable to meet with your assigned academic advisor, you can contact Academic Advising for advising support. Call 610-359-5324 or schedule an advising appointment. Appointments are recommended to avoid long wait times. Current students may also register online.
