Enrollment Procedure
Each fall and spring semester, enrollment begins with a two-week rollout of individually assigned enrollment appointments through my.butler.edu. Registration remains open until the fifth day of class each semester. Students must meet with their advisor before registering. Registration in any course for credit or in any course under the pass/fail option, or any change involving the addition of a course, is not permitted after the published deadlines. If a student wishes to make a change in his or her registration, permission must be secured from a student’s academic advisor and/or from the Dean of the college in which the student is enrolled. Permission also is required if a student intends a complete withdrawal from the University. A student may register for an independent study course with permission of the relevant department chair or Dean.
New Student Procedures
First-year students will be assigned an advising/registration appointment by the student’s college. Transfer students will be assigned an advising/registration time by their college of enrollment. Graduate students may register during any published registration period; they will receive a final schedule with their billing statement. Non-degree students may register following the last group of first-year students.
