Online registration is underway for the upcoming summer and fall 2020 academic terms at MTSU.

Priority registration runs through Friday, April 17. Students can access the MTSU Registration Guide at http://mtsu.edu/registration/registration-guide.php, then should contact and meet their advisers either online, email or phone and obtain the classes they need.

Tyler Henson, director of the MT One Stop, recommends students make wise class choices and to attend those classes after the summer and fall semesters begin.

“Make good choices,” Henson said. “And make it count when you meet your academic adviser and plan your schedule for each semester. You’ll be glad you did. Not paying attention to this rule could affect full-time enrollment status.”

This summer, because of ongoing public health precautions surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, all summer classes will be offered remotely online.

“We’re still offering a wide variety of courses to help students continue their studies despite restrictions to studying on campus,” Henson said. “Students will find that many instructors are designing their classes to work in a remote delivery setting given the situation, even though such classes are not normally delivered online.”

Henson said priority registration for summer and fall is crucial for currently enrolled students because they can register before thousands of incoming freshmen and transfer students.

“Those who wait risk losing their seats as early as the Monday after priority registration, when the new students can register for summer courses,” he added, “so it’s in their best interest to register at their assigned time and not wait until August or May to sign up for fall classes.”

MTSU offers more than 300 combined undergraduate and graduate programs.
