Experience the Benefits
of Self-Registration
From: Student Central
Most of us enjoy the freedom of
completing important recurring tasks
on our own terms. We appreciate the
convenience of paying bills in the
comfort of our home and ordering
groceries at midnight if the mood
strikes us.
Registration is one of those important
“To Dos” that can be tailored to your
schedule by using various tools available to you. The Student Portal connects you to sites that enable you to
monitor your current financial award
package and self-register for classes
whenever and wherever you choose.
What if you’re not sure how to selfregister? Another tool, Ask DeVry
(Ask.DeVry.Edu) makes it easy for
you to access registration tutorials,
find answers to frequently-asked
questions, and submit a request for
help from your Student Success Professional. The self-service tool provides a guide for selecting a course
and adding it to your schedule. After
entering Ask.DeVry.Edu to access
the tool, search for the following
questions to find helpful hints:
What courses should I take this
term?
How do I add or drop a class?
you’ll make self-registration a seamless process.
1. Work with your Student Success
Professional to develop a solid
plan of study. Reconnect to discuss any changes before selfregistering.
2. Contact Student Finance to clarify the number of credit hours for
which you’ve been approved and
ensure that your payment plan is
secure.
3. Confirm that you’re academically
clear to register.
4. Check your location’s course
schedule to determine which
classes are available.
If you need any help along the way,
remember to reach out to your Student Success Professional for support.

Convenience isn’t the only benefit to
consider. When you register for future sessions now, you’ll secure a
seat in an upcoming course and get a
sneak-peek at your course shell one
week before the start of classes.
You’ll also help reduce the risk that
the class you need to take will be
cancelled due insufficient enrollment.
