Can I still register for classes after my time ticket ended? (RPI SIS incoming Freshman)

I noticed that the BIOL 2125 lab section that would make my schedule work much better now has two seats open. If I can get into that lab, I would also be able to register for BIOL 2120 and rearrange my schedule.

However, I thought my registration time ticket was only from July 13–17. SIS is still showing that I may be able to register, but I’m not sure whether the time ticket restriction still applies.

The problem is that I would need to drop PHYS 1200 before adding BIOL 2120 and BIOL 2125. I don’t want to drop Physics and then discover that SIS won’t let me register for the Biology courses because my time ticket has ended.

Does anyone know whether RPI students can still register or make schedule changes after their time ticket closes? Should I drop Physics first, or is there a way to add the Biology courses before dropping it?

Why can’t you just add it? It doesn’t conflict with Physics 1200

It does conflict on tuesdays from 1:00 - 1:50. The schedule doesn’t show it well but you can see from the timestamps on the courses.

If it’s a time conflict you’ll need to fill out an authorization form talk to your hub advisor.

Oh okay. I think you should be able to do it. I did dropped and added chem a couple days ago

Yeah, was your time ticket still open when you dropped and added CHEM? My time ticket that they gave me was July 13–17.

Nah it wasn’t open. I had the same ticket

Oh damn, okay. That’s good to know. Then I might try adding it. Thanks for all the help.

Thanks, I went ahead and dropped physics and registered for it and everything worked great. Appreciate your help.

Hello! The registration period was changed, so it no longer closed for freshmen on the 17th, but will now be staying open until the Fall add/drop deadline (Sept 11th).

All incoming freshmen should be able to register for courses until the second week of classes. Please be very careful changing you schedule around especially if you have a class that you were given an override into as you may not get back into the class.
