Registration Time Periods

Currently enrolled students register for courses based on their registration time ticket through the Registration Tools channel on the student tab in my.citadel.edu. The time ticket schedule is based on the academic classification that you have earned.

Undergraduate Students

Advising Period

Prior to a student’s registration time period, they should meet with their advisor to have the academic advising hold removed from their account.  A designated advising period has been scheduled for two weeks prior to registration. Students should schedule a time to meet with their advisor during this period to have the best registration experience. 

Registration Time Tickets

Priority Registration for Spring and Summer 2025 begins on Thursday, October 31, at 8:00 pm by assigned time ticket for all currently enrolled students via my.citadel.edu. Click on the “Office of the Registrar” card and then “Student Registration Tools.”

Waitlisting

The Citadel is pleased to offer the waitlist function for all courses. Waitlisting provides a systematic approach to adding students to classes that have reached capacity. If a seat opens in a closed class, the first person on the waitlist is notified via their Citadel email address and offered the opportunity to register for the class. This student has 24 hours to take action. If the student does not register for the class within the required timeframe, he/she will be dropped from the waitlist and the next student is offered the seat.
