Registration is limited to six credits or two courses, whichever is greater, concurrently; and twelve credits or four courses, inclusive, across all terms of the summer session. Students registering for Summer 2009 are requested to adhere to the Registration Timetable.

Registration Procedures for Summer 2009

A priority registration period has been scheduled for current WPUNJ students who wish to register for Summer courses.

• Current WPUNJ students may begin registration on April 6.

• Visiting students from other institutions may begin registration on April 23.

Registration for Summer 2009 will be conducted through WPconnect. Summer session will be one term with multiple parts of the term to allow students greater flexibility in scheduling their courses. There are 10 different options available to students based on the dates that courses begin as well as the length of the session. Once registration is complete students should pay their bill before the due date. Payment due dates are based on the part of the term in which you are enrolled, therefore if you are registered for courses in different parts of term then there will be different payment due dates. The payment due dates for each part of term are listed in the calendar chart on the Summer Session homepage.

If you do not complete payment by the appropriate due date you will be dropped from your class. They only way that you can be re-enrolled for the course is to come in person to the Center for Student Services in Morrison Hall. Payment must be made at the time of re-enrollment. The staff will assist you in re-enrolling in a class as well as completing your payment process. The in person re-enrollment dates for each part of term are listed in the calendar chart on the Summer Session homepage.
