Academic Advising and the Registration Process
Registration is the process of selecting classes each term in consultation with an academic adviser. All matriculated students have assigned faculty advisers who provide guidance on academic matters and assist with registration. Normally, the assigned adviser is the chair or coordinator of the student’s major course of study or another faculty member designated by the chair.
Online registration is offered through the Matrix Student Information System. Matrix is also where final grades are posted for viewing at the end of each academic period. If you are a current student, you should have received a notification informing you of your student ID, login, password, and University email address. Newly accepted students receive this information once the acceptance process has been completed. This information enables you to access your UNH email account, the Blackboard Learning System, and the Matrix Student Information System.
Full-Time Students
Registration dates for upcoming terms are published in advance, and currently enrolled students will receive an email notification of the dates via their UNH email account. Once the dates are published, full-time students must pick up a copy of their academic worksheet from the Registrar’s Office and schedule an appointment with their academic adviser. After the academic adviser has approved the selection of courses, students may register online on their designated day as outlined in the email notification of registration dates.
Students desiring to register for more than 18 credits in any one semester must obtain written consent from their adviser and department chair, and must have a cumulative grade point average (G.P.A.)of 3.20 or higher.
All undergraduate international students are required to enroll for a minimum of 12 credits each semester.
New students or former students returning to UNH as full-time students should contact the Undergraduate Admissions Office to obtain information and an application. These students will receive registration information and instructions upon completion of the acceptance process.
Part-Time Students
Registration dates for upcoming terms are published in advance, and currently enrolled students will receive an email notification of the dates via their UNH email account. Once the dates are published, part-time students are encouraged to contact their academic adviser to assist with course selection. After the academic adviser has approved the selection of courses, students may register online on their designated day as outlined in the email notification of registration dates.
Part-time students may register for up to 11 credits in any term, semester, or module. Students desiring to enroll for more than 11 credits must change their standing to full time and be charged full-time tuition.
New students or former students returning to UNH as part-time students should contact University College to obtain information and an application. These students will receive registration information and instructions upon completion of the acceptance process.
Alumni Auditors
Alumni who audit courses pay a reduced tuition but must be approved through the Alumni Office before registering for courses. Auditing at the reduced rate is limited to courses at or below the level of the degree earned while previously enrolled as a student at UNH. Alumni may be required to complete an application for admission if their current information is not available in the Matrix Student Information System. Please contact University College to obtain information and an application. |
