Registration Appointment Availability
Appointment times are available in October for spring registration, February for summer registration, and March for fall registration, approximately 2 to 3 weeks before registration begins. Registration appointments are assigned based on the amount of earned and in-progress units a student has at that time.
Registration appointments for summer and fall 2023 are available for review in My Registration located in the My Merced portlet of connect.ucmerced.edu.
More Information About Registration Appointments
After a registration appointment is assigned, it will not be changed. This includes instances where transcripts, eligible for transfer credit review, are received after a registration appointment has been assigned. More information about registration priority can be found in the catalog.
For transfer credit to be included in spring 2024 assignments, students should have official transcripts submitted to the Office of the Registrar by September 15, 2023. Spring 2024 registration appointments will be available for review in My Registration located in the My Merced portlet of connect.ucmerced.edu in early October 2023.
New students
First-year and transfer students entering the University in fall 2023 will be sent information about registration appointment times, how to choose your classes, and how to register. Be sure to review the Admitted Student page for a full list of upcoming important registration-related events, dates, and deadlines. Of course, all new students are encouraged to attend an orientation session. During orientation, incoming students will meet with their academic advisor.
