How to register for courses?
Once you've set up your @mun.ca email and your MUN login ID, follow the steps below to understand your responsibilities, plan your schedule and complete your registration.
Before you begin
As you think about registering for courses, you should review information on your registration time and the registration priority policy.
Selecting courses
It is important to select and register for courses that will meet your desired program requirements. New students should follow sample first year programs; all students, declared or not, should review their degree requirements outlined in the university Calendar and seek academic advice to ensure they are on the right track.

Looking for help?
St. John's campus students
Contact the Registrar's Office at 709 864 4445 or email registrar@mun.ca.
Grenfell Campus students
Contact the Registrar's Office at 709 637 6298 or (toll-free) 1-866-381-7022 or email info@grenfell.mun.ca.
If you are not able to register online due to internet problems or restrictions, the university has as alternate registration option. The Alternate Registration form must be filled out and emailed to registrar@mun.ca before your assigned registration window. This option is not available if you have outstanding fees or if there are time conflicts in your schedule.
Common registration issues
If you attempt to register for a course and are unable to complete your registration, you will receive an error message. Based on the message you receive, you are likely experiencing one of the following registration error situations.
Prerequisite or corequisite not met
If you receive this message, you should check the course description in the university Calendar. Prerequisites and corequisites are indicated by "PR" and "CO," respectively, in course descriptions. You may need to register for:
Science 1807 and 1808 before registering for a science course with a laboratory component;
The Math Placement Test before registering for a mathematics course;
Your mathematics course before your physics course.
If you are on a waitlist, you should check your course registrations periodically through Memorial Self-Service. It is possible to become registered in a course if space becomes available; however, you will not be notified until you are sent your enrolment verification shortly before the start of the semester.
It is strongly recommended that you not waitlist for courses when there are open sections of the same course available. If you become registered in one course section, other waitlisted sections of that course will be dropped.
Waitlists will be deactivated approximately two weeks before the start of classes. The deactivation date for each semester is listed in Important Dates and Deadlines.
If you are not able to register for a desired course and you are no longer on a waitlist it is recommended that you speak with an advisor regarding available options.
Reserved courses
Priority in registration in many courses will be given to students who meet specified programs of study, such as admission to a degree program (including diplomas and certificates) and certain majors, minors or concentrations.
Reserves are indicated, below the course, in the online course listing. For example, under COMP 2650 you may see:
RESERVED FOR: MAJOR BDIE BIOC BIOL etc.
This means that students who have declared majors in dietetics, biochemistry, or biology, etc., will be given priority in registering for this course.
If you see
MAJOR: ANTH
 MINOR: ENGL
the course will be reserved for students who have declared a major in anthropology and a minor in English.
If you see
DEGREE: BSH
 MAJOR: PHYS
the course will be reserved for students pursuing a bachelor of science (honors) with a major in physics. Check the reserve codes table for possible reserve entries.
Reserves may vary according to course section. You should check all sections of a course to determine if you are eligible to register for it. It may be that not all spaces have been reserved, which means that an attempt to register could be successful.
If you change your academic program after registering, any course reserving in effect will be enforced. When your program change is processed, your registration will be reviewed and any course section for which you do not meet course reserve requirements will be dropped from your schedule.
At the academic unit's discretion, reserved seating may be lifted at the end of the day on which all undergraduate students have had the opportunity to register (see Important Dates and Deadlines for the specific date each semester). If you were wait-listed for a course which was initially reserved, you may automatically become registered for that course after this date if the reserve is lifted. Check the online course listing under RESV LFTD to see if a course reserve is scheduled to be lifted. Check Memorial Self-Service for your registration status after reserves are lifted.
Up until you become registered in your maximum course load the registration system will permit you to be registered and waitlisted in a maximum of 21 credit hours. If you become registered in one course section, other waitlisted sections of that course will be dropped. Also, your waitlists will become inactive once you become registered in the maximum number of credit hours required by your program.
Some academic units have placed limits on the lengths of waitlists. Therefore, if a waitlist for a particular course section is full, you will not be permitted to waitlist for the course.
PRE CHK
A "Y" value under this heading indicates that the department has requested that all prerequisites and/or co-requisites listed in the university Calendar be enforced.
A prerequisite course is a required course that must be completed before you begin classes in another course. For example, in order to register in Biology 1002, you are required to have first completed Biology 1001.
A co-requisite course is a required course that may be taken at the same time as another course. For example, the co-requisite for Nursing 1003 is Nursing 1004; therefore you must register for Nursing 1004 before you will be able to register for Nursing 1003 Similarly, if you drop Nursing 1004, Nursing 1003 will be automatically dropped from your schedule at the end of the registration session.
If you wish to register in a course for which a prerequisite or co-requisite exists, and you do not meet the requirement, you may wish to contact the appropriate academic unit head to request a waiver. You should do this before your assigned time of registration. Please note that any such waiver is valid only for one semester.
RESV LFTD
Information under this heading relates specifically to course sections where priority in registration has been established by academic units. A "Y" value under this heading indicates that reserved seating for the course section will be lifted after the close of the registration system. For further information, refer to the Wait List and Reserved Seating sections of these procedures.
ATTR
Using the Advanced Search feature in the Registration menu of Memorial Self-Service, you can search the course offerings by Attribute Type, such as Critical Reading and Writing (CRW) or Quantitative Reasoning (QR). Information on these and other Bachelor of Arts Core Requirements is available in the Core Requirements section of the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences Degree Regulations in the university Calendar.
In addition, specific Attribute Codes L and W may appear in this column, as follows:
INSTRUCTOR
This heading refers to the instructor(s) assigned to teaching the course section, as of the time of publication. Check the course offerings at this site for the most up-to-date information, or with individual academic units if instructors are not listed.
CRED HR
This column lists the credit hours associated with the course; for most courses this value will be 3 but some courses, such as Music 1118, have a credit hour value of 1.
BILL HR
INSTRUCTOR
This heading refers to the instructor(s) assigned to teaching the course section, as of the time of publication. Check the course offerings at this site for the most up-to-date information, or with individual academic units if instructors are not listed.
CRED HR
This column lists the credit hours associated with the course; for most courses this value will be 3 but some courses, such as Music 1118, have a credit hour value of 1.
BILL HR
This column indicates the hours assigned to a course for the purpose of tuition calculation. For most courses, the billing hour value will be the same as the credit hour value. However, there are exceptions, such as Math 102F which has a credit hour value of 0 and a billing hour value of 3. In cases where courses have been assigned a flat fee, such as co-operative work terms, N/A will appear in this column.
Course waivers
During registration, you may receive a registration error message when adding your selected courses. If you receive a notification related to prerequisites/corequisites or course load, you may need to fill out a waiver to resolve the problem.
Pre/co requisite waivers
You will need a  pre/co requisite waiver if you do not meet the prerequisite or corequisite requirements for a course.
Course load waivers
You will need a course load waiver if you need to register for more than the normal course load in a semester/session. 
The normal course load in any semester is 15 credit hours, and in any session, six credit hours. Certain academic programs sometimes require you to register for more than the normal course load. If this is the case, you will not need a course load waiver.
Pre/co requisite waivers
If you wish to register for a course that has a prerequisite or corequisite requirement, and you do not meet that requirement, you can contact the appropriate academic unit head to request a waiver. You should do this before your assigned time of registration. Any such waiver is valid only for one semester.
Complete the Prerequisite Waiver form or pick up a copy at the Registrar's Office in St. John's (A 2003) or at Grenfell Campus (AS 277). The completed form will need to be dropped off to the Registrar's Office for processing.
Enforced prerequisites and corequisites will be checked at the time of your initial registration, and you will not be permitted to register for a course if you have not completed its prerequisites or registered for its corequisites. However, if at the time of registration you have a course in progress which is a prerequisite for a desired next semester course, you will be allowed to register for that course. After grades become available for the semester, any courses for which the prerequisites were not successfully completed will be dropped from your next semester’s registration. This action will be indicated on your student schedule.
Outstanding grades of INC (incomplete) and ABS (absent) will satisfy prerequisites only until one week after the first day of lectures. If you have an outstanding grade, as of that date, from a course in the previous semester course which is a prerequisite to a current semester course, you will not be able to remain registered in the current semester course unless you are able to obtain a prerequisite waiver.
Course load waiver
The normal course load in any semester is 15 credit hours, and in any session, 6 credit hours. Should you wish to register for more than the normal course load, and should your academic program not require you to register in more than the normal load, you must obtain the written permission of the Dean/Director of your faculty/school. This permission must be processed by the Registrar's Office before the registration systems will permit you to register in more than the normal course load.
Complete the Course Load Waiver form or pick up a copy at the Registrar's Office in St. John's, A 2003 or at Grenfell Campus, AS 277. The completed form will need to be dropped off to the Registrar's Office for processing.
Withdrawing after the last day to drop
You can withdraw from the University, using a Cancellation of Registration form, if the following is true:
You are prevented from completing the requirements of a course due to extenuating circumstances and;
It is after the last day to drop courses without academic prejudice (for the course(s) in question) and;
It is before the last day to add courses in the following semester.
Students wishing to drop courses should pay close attention to the regulations regarding academic prejudice.
You will be required to submit, to the Registrar's Office, a Cancellation of Registration form with the required signatures from the head of your academic unit. If you are not declared in a program, you should acquire the signature of the Senior Faculty Advisor for either the Faculty of Science or the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences.
