Formal admission to RBS and payment, or arrangement with the cashier regarding payment, of tuition and fees are a part of the registration process. Students who have not properly registered cannot attend class.

All students who complete registration on time receive registration information for the following semester. Those who take part in registration receive semester bills for the following semester. All students, regardless of method of payment, must make contact with the cashier each semester or their registration will be canceled.

Students who do not receive registration information by May 15 for the fall semester and by October 15 for the spring semester should contact the RBS Office of Student Services. Newly admitted students receive complete registration instructions at the time of their admission.

It is the responsibility of the student to remain in communication with the graduate director of the program for which he or she is matriculated.

A student admitted into a degree program of RBS is expected to remain registered in every fall and spring semester thereafter until completing the program and earning the degree. Normally a student registers for courses and, if necessary, may register for matriculation continued (leave of absence). Any student who fails to maintain continuous registration (nonenrolled for three consecutive semesters) may not resume formal graduate study or register again in RBS without first applying for readmission through the Office of Student Services.
