Advisement & Registration program is intended to give new students an introduction to academic life at UMD and a sense of the commitment required to pursue a bachelor's degree. During Advisement & Registration, you will meet other new students; attend a college meeting on degree, major, and course requirements; meet with an adviser to discuss your interests in pursuing a bachelor's degree; and select your first semester classes.

Confirm now to hold your spot in the new UMD class.
