How to Register for Classes
To register for classes, you must use ePAWS.
Each class is assigned a five (5) digit call number. You can find the call number for every class in the semester class schedule, or online. If a class does not have a call number, you will need to contact the department that is teaching the class.
In ePAWS, you add or drop classes by entering the call number. If you have any problems using ePAWS, contact Admissions & Records.

Registering for classes is based upon your standing at the university and your last name. Check the schedule.
