Graduate Registration Instructions
About Registration
Graduate students registering for programs that do not require full-time attendance have several registration options depending on status and dates of registration. Graduate students do not need adviser approval and thus take personal responsibility for course selection and degree completion (students may contact advisers for help in course planning). The Business Office will send tuition bills to graduate students at their home address following registration; students on financial holds will not be permitted to register. Students on a grade hold may register, but will not have access to grades.
To participate in courses requiring fieldwork in elementary and secondary schools, original and updated PA and FBI clearances must be presented on the first day of class. Go to the Education Department website (www.arcadia.edu/edudept) for guidelines and procedures. Courses that require these clearances include, but may not be limited to CS105, ED110A, ED110B, ED120, ED120L, ED212, ED214, ED216, ED217, ED218, ED220, ED220L, ED221, ED221L, ED313, ED315, ED319, ED320L, ED322, ED324, ED330L, ED375, ED411, ED412A, ED412D, ED416, ED417, ED419, ED423, ED443, ED470, ED471, ED474, ED478, ED501, ED502, ED503, ED505, ED513, ED520A, ED520B, ED521, ED523, ED526A, ED552, ED553, ED556, ED562A, ED562B, ED579, ED580, ED582, ED583A, ED583B, ED584, ED585, ED590, ED591, ED592, ED595, ED597, ED606, ED607 and ED622.
Graduate Priority Registration schedule
- Matriculated and non-matriculated students may register using Self-Service, E-mail, or a Registration Form (on or after November 9)
How to Register
Self-Service Web Registration (formerly the IQWeb Student Information System) Current graduate students may register for programs that do not require full-time attendance using the Self-Service system. Please note: Registration for students eligible to use Self-Service begins at the start of Priority Registration and continues until about a week before classes begin.
If you are new to Arcadia, you can create a personal profile and register for a course using our online Self-Service system. Students who have not attended Arcadia University previously are encouraged to call the Enrollment Management Office at 1-877-ARCADIA (1-877-272-2342) with any questions regarding courses, prerequisites and academic advising.
Other Options
- E-mail Registration. Identify course requests by specific course codes including section and term (e.g., Summer 1, Fall) in a message to be sent to registrar@arcadia.edu. Students will receive registration confirmation by email.
- Registration Form (PDF format)
- Fax completed form to Office of the Registrar at 215-572-2126
- Mail or submit (in person) completed form to Office of the Registrar
- Students will receive confirmation by fax, email or regular mail (state preference).
Note: Current students are encouraged to view grades, course schedules, classroom assignments using Self-Service.
Important Notes
- Students who schedule an independent study must request the appropriate form from the Office of the Registrar. The completed form with the required signatures must be included with the registration materials.
- Registration for full (closed) courses is not currently enabled in Self-Service. Students using Self-Service are advised to register for all open courses and save their schedule. A separate email should then be sent to registrar@arcadia.edu indicating the semester, course and section of the desired full (closed) course. The Registrar's Office will add students to the waitlist queue.
- Students with disabilities who require accommodations should contact Disabilities Support Services.
