1. Attend the first class meeting and collect an add code from the instructor. Late adds are at the discretion of the instructor and are granted on a space-available basis. The code lists the term, course name, instructor name, course reference number (CRN) and an official authorization code.
   Important: Instructors will not issue add codes until the first day that their own class meets.
2. Log in to your MyPortal account.
3. From the Students tab in Myportal, select Add or Drop Classes in the Registration Tools section and select the college and term from the drop-down menu and click Submit.
4. Enter the five-digit class CRN into the Add Classes Worksheet at the bottom of the screen. If you are on the course's waitlist, read the instructions below. Click Submit Changes button. A screen to enter the add code will pop up. Follow the instructions. Remember, payment in full is due immediately at the time of registration.

Prior to the start of the term, you may add a class from the waitlist. Review the following process:

1. You will receive an e-mail notification if a seat in the class becomes available. You are responsible for ensuring that your e-mail address is valid and current in your MyPortal account.
2. Once you receive the time-stamped e-mail notification that your seat is available, you then have exactly 12 hours to complete the add process via your MyPortal account, including submitting payment for the added course. If you fail to complete the add process in 12 hours, you will lose the seat in the course and it will be offered to the next student on the waitlist.
3. Follow the instructions detailed in the time-stamped e-mail notification to complete the add process.
