Pre-registration & Registration
Continuing students are required to pre-register for MIT subjects several months in advance of registration day. Pre-registration is available via WEBSIS.
For pre-registration deadlines, please visit MIT academic calendar or the MIT online subject listing.
ON-LINE REGISTRATION
Your MIT Registration Form will be available at https://registration.mit.edu one week prior to MIT's Registration Day. The Form is populated with your pre-registration selections. (Note, the website login will indicate “Unauthorized” until the system opens)
Advisor Meetings and Form Approval Process
Although the registration forms are on-line, we still expect you to meet with your academic advisor on or before Registration Day to discuss your academic progress and course selections. In preparation for your advisor meeting, please go to your registration form and make any adjustments to your subject selections. After your advisor approves the subject selections online, you will receive an email, at which point you will be required to complete the registration process. Registrations that are submitted after 5:00 PM on the due date may result in a late fee.
HMS MD Registration
HST MD students will meet with their academic advisors at HMS to finalize both their MIT and HMS registrations. Locations of advisor meetings will be sent by email prior to Registration Day.
First and second year MD students should also bring their HMS study cards to their advisors' meetings for signature; your advisor will have access to your on-line MIT registration.
Third and fourth year MD students, and upper class MD/PhD students not doing their PhD at MIT, should register for one unit of HST.198 as a listener at MIT to maintain their MIT status. No forms are required for HMS registration.
Harvard University Cross-Registration
Each school at Harvard maintains its own academic calendar. Please refer to the individual school's academic calendar for more detailed information. Additional resources can be found at:
