Registration and Schedules

Programs at Dunwoody College are designed around a cohort model so that students complete their degrees in a specific time frame. However, students can request less than part-time, part-time, three-quarter time, and full-time schedules based on their preference and extenuating circumstances. Students are encouraged to communicate these requests with the Registrar's Office, faculty advisor, or their director/dean.

I am a new student, how do I register for classes? 

For your first semester at Dunwoody, registration is completed by the Registrar's Office. To be cleared for registration, students complete the year-appropriate FAFSA or the Financial Responsibility Form. Academic Plans follow a cohort model and are used to determine your first semester schedule.

Once you are registered, you can locate your textbooks through the Dunwoody Bookstore using the term, department, course number, and section listed on your schedule in my.dunwoody.

I am a transfer student, how do I register for classes? 

For your first semester at Dunwoody, registration is completed by the Registrar's Office. To be cleared for registration, students complete the year-appropriate FAFSA or the Financial Responsibility Form or add Dunwoody's school code to an existing FAFSA. The Registrar's Office reviews all your transfer credits via official transcript submission and determines an appropriate first semester schedule. If your schedule doesn't follow the prescribed cohort model due to your transfer credits, your dean or director assists in selecting the best schedule.

To register for classes:

  • Ensure all account balances are satisfied before registration
  • Satisfy all pre-requisite(s) requirements for courses
