Registering For Classes
Register For Classes - You can register, add, and drop classes online. You'll need to get an advisement code from your advisor before you can register online. If I am your advisor you must meet with me before I give you an advising code. I will not give out these codes by email, but you can email me to set up an advising appointment (Charlene-Simmons@utc.edu)

You'll need to use the checklist that corresponds with your appropraite catalog year (usually the year you entered UTC, although you can elect to change catalog years).
