Don’t forget to check, verify, and adjust your enrollment during the adjustment period which runs until Sept. 26 at 5pm. Take time to access WebReg, list your classes, and make sure you know if any changes have occurred to your schedule. You don’t want to show up at the wrong room on the first day of class! Some Major-only and other restrictions are often lifted during the adjustment window, so you may want to check on courses that were previously unavailable to you during the initial enrollment period.
