Registration periods for students are posted on the Registrar’s Web page at www.marymount.edu/registrar. The student is expected to seek the academic guidance of a faculty advisor in developing a schedule of classes. No credit will be granted for any course, including independent study, unless registration is completed prior to the start of a semester. Responsibility rests with the student to register for the necessary courses in the proper sequence to meet the requirements of the chosen curriculum.
All prescribed charges for the previous semester must be paid before registration may begin. All charges for the ensuing semester must be paid, or provided for, before registration is complete. No student whose account is in arrears will be permitted to register until all obligations are met. This includes submission of medical records (when necessary), payment of parking fees, and payment of library fines.
Students are responsible for maintaining a current U.S. address on file with the University. Students should advise the Registrar’s Office of any address changes.
During the first nine days of the fall or spring semester, unregistered students may enroll, but are subject to a Late Registration fee. During a summer session, a student must add before the second class meeting. Unregistered students adding a summer class are also subject to a Late Registration fee. Registered students may add classes during this period without a Late Registration fee. Classes may not be added after the Late Registration and Add/Withdrawal period has ended unless approved by the appropriate School dean and the associate vice president for Academic Affairs.
Students can add or withdraw from courses online or in person up to the last day specified in the Academic Calendar. Students who stop attending courses without officially withdrawing from the course or separating from the University will receive an F. Any tuition refund will be calculated from the withdrawal/separation date recorded by the Registrar’s Office. For more information about separating from the University
Candidates for a degree must maintain Continuous Registration until all degree requirements are satisfied. By failing to register for one semester or more (not including summer semester), a student breaks registration and must reapply. Continuous Registration may be maintained for a maximum of two consecutive semesters, not including the summer semester.
A nondegree student who breaks registration for one semester or more must reapply for admission to the University.
Continuous Registration requires the student’s signature and may be provided via the U.S. mail or by fax. For more information about the process, contact the Office of the Registrar.

The date of submission of a Continuous Registration form to the Office of the Registrar is the official date to determine the student’s financial responsibility to the University.
All degree-seeking students in good academic standing are eligible to enroll in courses offered through the Consortium of Universities of the Washington Metropolitan Area. Nondegree students are not eligible.

Consortium courses fulfill the minimum-credits requirement for residency.
