Registration

If you would like help with course registration, you can drop in and meet with your Enrolment Advisor. If you want to register at home, follow these steps.

1. Log on to the student portal,MyAC.
2. From the student portal dashboard, select “Course Registration”
3. Scroll through the courses available, select a course, and click “add” to make a selection.
4. When you have finished selecting all courses, click “continue with selected courses.”
5. The system will check your schedule for time conflicts. You will be asked “are you sure you wish to enrol in these courses?” Click Yes, register me for next semester.

Payment

Pay within 5 business days if you register during the Regular Registration period or within 1 business day if you register during the Late Registration period.

If a course has a waiting list, the course is full. You cannot register for a course that is full, but you can add your name to the waiting list.

This list allows interested students to line up and wait to see if any seats become available in the course. When you add your name to the waiting list for a course, you will see a number, for example 4/4. This means that you are the fourth person on a list of 4 people.

While you are on the waiting list for a course, you are responsible for watching your position on the list. If a seat becomes available, you will see an option to accept or reject the seat from your MyAC account.

You have just 24 hours to accept the seat. If you accept the seat within 24 hours, the course will be added to your registered courses.

If you do not accept the seat within 24 hours, or you reject it, your place on the waiting list will be removed and the seat will be offered to the next student on the waiting list.

The error message should indicate a reason and provide contact information for the appropriate department to help you. In most cases, an error messages are caused by a hold on the student account, a time conflict, or reserved course seating (e.g. ENGL 100).

The following are come common error message that you might encounter:

• Time Conflict

If you receive a time conflict message, two or more of your courses have a time conflict. In the event that a student enrols in two or more courses at different campuses, an allowance of 1 hour travel time between campuses is automatically calculated.

• Full-time registration requirement for ENGL 100

If you want to register for ENGL 100, you must also register for (and stay in) at least 2 other university-level courses in the same term. This does not include courses that you are on the waiting list for.

• Suspension hold

A Suspension hold is applied when a student has been suspended from the College for reasons of poor academic performance, academic or non-academic misconduct.

• Registrar hold

A Registrar hold is applied when there is an unresolved disciplinary case or if the Registrar wants to block a student from registering due to some kind of misconduct. Examples include: plagiarism and cheating, fraudulent documents, academic or non-academic misconduct.

• Financial hold

A Financial hold is applied when a student has an outstanding fee balance that is past due. Examples include: library fines, tuition fees, NSF cheques, etc.
