Registering for Classes

All matriculated students at ÀÏÍõÂÛ̳ register for classes using BiONiC. Undergraduate students may select courses from ÀÏÍõÂÛ̳ and Haverford College.

Students may register for classes two times each semester: preregistration (prior to the start of the semester) and during registration period (the first week and a half of classes). 

If you need help with registering for courses in Bionic, visit our Bionic Tour help videos, or our Drop-In Help Hours!

Changes requested after the end of add/drop must be completed using the late add/drop form (found on the Change of Registration page), and approved by the student's Dean.
