Course Registration/Enrollment

Modified on Fri, 18 Sep at 6:24 PM

Quick Answer

Course registration only opens once the applicant receives the official acceptance letter from Admissions. From there, the student must register within the schedule published for their cohort, in addition to having met the program's entry requirements, paid the required fees, and submitted the required documentation to the responsible department.


Before You Begin

  • Have received the official acceptance letter from Admissions. Without it, you cannot register for any course.
  • Know the registration schedule published by the university for your cohort.
  • Have met all entry requirements for your program of study.

How It Works

The Registrar's Office determines registration procedures and, together with the Academic Department, establishes the academic calendar. Applicants cannot register for courses before receiving the official acceptance letter from Admissions. Detailed information about registration procedures is distributed in advance by the Admissions Department.

Students must register on the dates set for their cohort, according to the registration schedule published by the university. Each course a student registers for, whether during regular registration or late registration, becomes part of the student's permanent academic record.

To register officially for courses, the student must:

  • Meet all entry requirements for their program of study.
  • Pay all required fees to the Finance Office.
  • Complete and submit all required documentation to the responsible university department.

The registration pace also depends on the program format: the master's program is divided into three consecutive five-week terms (Terms A, B, and C) within a 15-week semester, while the doctoral program follows a continuous 15-week semester.


Step by Step

  1. Receive the official acceptance letter from Admissions.
  2. Confirm that you meet all entry requirements for your program of study.
  3. Pay the required fees to the Finance Office.
  4. Complete and submit the required documentation to the responsible university department.
  5. Register for your courses within the dates set for your cohort, according to the registration schedule published by the university.

Deadlines and Rules

  • MUST University offers a drop/add period of up to 7 calendar days from the start of the term or semester, allowing the student to adjust their course schedule without academic penalty.
  • Dropping a course without registering for another in its place can affect the student's enrollment status, tuition charges, financial obligations, and Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP).
  • To cancel registration within the drop/add period, the student can contact the Registrar's Office at registrar@mustedu.com or submit the Student Request Form available on the student portal.
