Registering for classes isn鈥檛 hard, but there are a few steps to take to get you there. One thing to be aware of is that you鈥檙e not able to see the 鈥淩egistration鈥� tab in Populi until registration opens. If you look for it before that date, it won鈥檛 be there.
Once registration opens, follow these steps to ensure that you are enrolled in the classes you want to take for the term. If you haven’t done so already, we highly recommend taking a look at the course rotation for your program. If you鈥檙e not sure which classes you want to sign up for, you are encouraged to sign up for as many classes as you want to take. Full time is considered to be 7 credits, though students do sometimes take a few more. Just be aware that if you register for a class and later choose not to take them, you will need to go back into Populi and drop the class by the add/drop deadline (see the Academic Calendar) so you don鈥檛 incur any fees or penalties. If you would like academic advising, you are welcome to sign up for a time to meet with Mac Martin (Academic Advisor) using

When selecting required courses, please be sure to choose the correct section for your modality! Low-residency students should select courses ending with an “O” (online) or “R” (residency). On-campus students should select courses ending with an “S” (Seattle). Courses ending with a “T” are travel residencies. Elective courses that are only offered in one format are open to all students regardless of modality.
Please Note:
- You can register for as many classes as you like, but we recommend not exceeding 10 credits in your first term.
- You cannot register for a class if you haven鈥檛 completed its required prerequisites.
- First-year students are not permitted to register for electives during their first term.
Once registration is closed, you will no longer be able to see the registration tab. If you need to add or drop after that time, reach out to academics@theseattleschool.edu for assistance.
