Registration & Records

Before you register, check out the Academic Catalog. Advisors can help you plan your academic path and make smart choices. If you have veterans’ benefits to use, visit the Veterans Resource Center for assistance.

Registration opens by “time ticket” on the Monday after the quarterly Academic Fair. Learn about time tickets and when (and how) to register.

Open registration ends at 4 pm on Friday before the quarter starts. Check your registration details on My Evergreen.

During the first week of class, you can continue to register online with a faculty override until Friday at 4 pm. After that, you must use a paper registration form. You may also be charged a late fee. Find out more about changing your registration after the start of the quarter.

Disaster Avoidance Tips

When your registration just doesn’t look right

If you see anything about your registration that doesn't seem right, let us know. The sooner you tell us, the more quickly we can help you fix it.

One of the most common problems comes from issues with waitlist priority. Make sure you've adjusted your waitlists to reflect what you really want. Learn how waitlists work.

Register for the right number of credits

Most full-time undergraduate students should plan on taking 12 to 16 credits per quarter. Taking more than 16 credits is a serious decision. There are restrictions on what you can take at 17 to 20 credits to help you be most successful. No student may take more than 20 credits per quarter, including credits taken at any other college at the same time.

Deal with account holds

What can cause a hold: fines, late tuition, late fees, missing transcripts, missing immunization documents, or bouncing email.

See if you have a hold in your “to-do” box in My Evergreen. Click through to see what kind of hold, who to contact, and whether it affects your registration. You’ll still need to talk to someone to have a hold lifted after you resolve the problem.

Holds can be placed at any time. Check before registration opens to be sure you don't have any holds that could keep you from registering.

Take leave without losing ground

If you have completed at least one quarter at Evergreen, you can choose to not register for classes for up to four quarters (including summer) and still be considered a student at Evergreen. Your college email will remain active during this time and you will continue to receive college emails at that address.

You can formally declare a leave of absence, so that financial aid knows to adjust your package. You'll indicate when you are planning to return to Evergreen on the leave form.

After four quarters absent, you will be formally withdrawn and need to reapply for admission. You have the right to request to be withdrawn from the college at any time.

There are financial aid consequences to withdrawing or taking a leave of absence. Contact the Financial Aid office if you have questions.
