First Year Experience & Students in Transition

Reservations for Advisement & Registration

Invitations to Advisement and Registration are sent to admitted students beginning in mid January for students beginning at UMD in Fall 2008. After that time, invitations are mailed the week after students are admitted to UMD.

Please note that you have a finite amount of time to respond to your invitation to Advisement & Registration. If you were admitted to UMD prior to April 14, 2008, the deadline to confirm your Advisement & Registration date is May 1, 2008. If you were admitted after April 14, 2008, you must confirm your Advisement & Registration date within four weeks of your admission to UMD. If it is after the deadline, you must contact the Office of Admissions at 218-726-7171 ( or 1-800-232-1339) to inquire whether you may still confirm a space on the fall 2008 class.

To reserve an Advisement & Registration date, either reserve your date online or return the Advisement and Registration Reply form by mail, along with your Advisement & Registration fee.

If you reply by mail, you will need to indicate your first and second preference for dates on the reply form, recognizing that each session has a limited capacity. The earlier sessions allow you to choose from a wider selection of classes than the later dates.

Whether you reply online or by mail, you will receive a confirmation packet oOnce both the reply and the fee are received. The confirmation packet will indicate the session at which you have a reservation and will also provide information to help you prepare for your Advisement & Registration session. Please read this information carefully and complete the items on the checklist enclosed with your packet.

If you are requesting an orientation date on the same day as a friend, you should return your reply forms together in the same envelope. Be sure to select dates on which both students' college units meet.
