Course Registration

Summer 2024 Registration

Boston University is requiring that all students attending classes on campus receive a COVID-19 vaccine. Information on this requirement, including how to upload your documentation and a list of frequently asked questions, can be found here.

Before submitting the registration form, you must do the following:

  • Review the degree requirements (the requirements for certificate students are available here)
  • Review the announcements section of the Course Information page
  • Review the course descriptions and check to make sure you meet the prerequisite or co-requisite requirements for all classes you want to take.
    • If you are requesting to waive a pre or co-requisite or a required class, please complete the waiver request form before submitting the registration form.
    • If you have not received a waiver, and you do not meet the prerequisite or co-requisite requirements for a class, we cannot register you.
  • Check your compliance status in the Student Portal – click on the My Academics tab, then Check Compliance Status on the right side of the page. If there is an “N” next to any requirement, you must resolve that issue prior to submitting your registration form. We cannot process your registration if you have any holds, and we cannot override a hold. 
    • Items that affect your compliance status:
      • Paying the previous semester’s student account balance
      • Completion of the Sexual Misconduct Prevention Training
      • Completion of the immunization requirements (residential students only)
      • Confirmation of your BU alert phone number and local address every semester (residential students only)

To make changes to your schedule after registering, please use the add/drop form. Please only submit ONE add/drop form, once you are sure of the changes you would like to make.

  • Please note that if you register and then wish to take a leave of absence for the semester, you must drop all of your classes BEFORE the start of the semester. If you drop your classes after the start of the semester you may still be responsible for a portion, or all, of the tuition cost.

The Summer 2024 semester begins Tuesday, May 21st.

Summer 2024 registration is closed. Please email gradtax@bu.edu with any questions.
