Tips
Advising – Be sure to contact your advisor to discuss your class schedule prior to registration,
even if you are sure of the classes you need to take. It never hurts to have your advisor provide
confirmation!
Holds – Make sure you have cleared all holds prior to attempting to register for classes. Be sure to
check My Notifications in MyMoreheadState to see if you have a hold. You will not be permitted to
register if you have a hold.
Navigating MyMoreheadState – Don’t use the back button on your browser to navigate from
page to page. Use the navigation bar at the top of each WebAdvisor screen instead.
Synonym – A synonym is a five digit code assigned to each course. You can use this code to
register for your courses in Express Registration.
Registration Date – Make sure you know your assigned registration day/ time. Your registration
day/ time is determined by the number of credits you have completed and does not include credits
in which you are currently enrolled. Once early registration has ended, you may register at any time
thereafter. Remember, registering early is the key to getting the classes you want.
