Jones School Registrar


Second Year Students - Spring Registration

Registration Week is now over, but you can keep making changes until the add/drop deadline for the appropriate term (or before for the first class meeting for ILE or short courses). (NOTE: If you were not registered for at least one course before 5pm on Friday 11/16, you may find a late registration fee on your student account in the coming weeks.)

Here are a couple of the frequently asked questions we get, as well as critical reminders:
  • When I try to register, ESTHER says the course is closed. This means the course either requires an application (see next bullet) or that the course is full. If the latter, please email jgsbregistrar@rice.edu with your Student ID Number, the course number and section, and the CRN, and we’ll add you to the waitlist.
  • Where can I find the link to apply for a course? The Tableau course list has a tab called Application-Based Courses, which has the course details, as well as the application link--click on the text link, and the clickable link will appear! Some applications are already closing, and others close between today and December 12.
  • Program Priority is in effect until December 7 and will be sorted out no later than December 14. Please see the Registration & Program FAQs in your program’s section of the Jones School Registrar and Advising CampusGroups website for more details. 
As a reminder, all of the logistics information you need can be found on the Jones School Registrar and Advising CampusGroups site–just navigate to your program, then the Registration & Program FAQs section. You can also track your graduation progress by looking at your DegreeWorks account, or schedule an Advising Appointment to discuss any concerns you have as you move into your final semester. Let us know if you have any questions: jgsbregistrar@rice.edu.  

 

Tutors

It's not too late to schedule a session with a tutor through the online link if you want additional help studying for your exams!

 

Need Advising?

Maria Johnson, Director of Advising, Registration & Records, is happy to meet with you. To make sure that she is able to meet with you be sure to schedule an appointment. There are phone and in-person meeting options available.
