Winter 2010 Graduate

REGISTRATION FOR GRADUATE STUDENTS FOR Winter/Spring 2010
BEGINS October 16th, 2009

Winter/Spring 2010 REGISTRATION INFORMATION General Information
    Online registration is offered through the Matrix Student Information System. If you are a current student, you should have received a letter informing you of your Student ID, login, password, and university email address. Newly accepted students will receive the same information once the acceptance process has been completed. This will enable you to access your UNH email, the Blackboard Learning System, and the Matrix Student Information System.

    To log on to Matrix, go to www.newhaven.edu and choose Matrix-Student from the Quick Links, or go directly to http://matrix-sws.newhaven.edu/student.

Support is available M-F 8:30 AM to 12:00 PM and 1:00 PM to 4:30 PM in the Student Support Office in Echlin Hall. For help or more information you can call 203.932.7235 or email studenttechsupport@newhaven.edu.

Registration
    A $40 non-refundable deposit per course must be paid at the time of registration. UNH is pleased to offer e-Pay, an electronic billing and payment system. With e-Pay, you will be notified via your UNH email account that your latest tuition bill is available. In addition to viewing your latest statement, you will be able to review prior statements, make payments, authorize someone else to view and pay your account, and obtain an up-to-the-minute summary of your account. e-Pay can also be accessed through Matrix self-service.

     Questions concerning course selection should be discussed with your program advisor prior to registration. Program coordinators may grant waivers and/or transfer credit for graduate courses, based on undergraduate and/or graduate work completed. Students should not register for courses for which they expect waivers or transfer credit. Refunds will not be allowed for courses taken and subsequently waived. Students should follow waiver guidelines available from the various departments.

     Note: Students should consult the Graduate Catalog course descriptions to be sure that they have met all prerequisites before registering.

Current Students - Beginning October 16, 2009: Register online using self-service registration. You may have an enrollment hold which will prevent you from registering if any of the following apply:

New Students
    Newly accepted students will receive a letter informing them of their student ID, login, password, and university email address. Please follow registration directions under the general information heading on this page.

    New students who have not completed the application process or who have applied too late for an admission decision may, in some programs, register for the upcoming term as in-process students. Please contact the Graduate Admissions Office at 203.932.7448 or 203.932.7449 for registration information. Prospective students in this status are required to have earned an undergraduate degree and must submit an application form, the application fee, and a copy of their undergraduate transcript prior to or at the time of registration.

    Students who register as in-process students are advised that a decision regarding acceptance into a degree program will be delayed until all application materials and credentials have been received by the Graduate Admissions Office. Permission to register as an in-process student does not guarantee admission to the graduate school. No late fee is assessed for new students.
