The Gallatin Registration Process

  1. Check for registration stops on Albert by selecting "Registration Status" under the "Registration" menu. You CANNOT register if there is a stop. Follow the instructions on Albert to resolve all registration stops that appear.
  2. Make an appointment to meet with your adviser.
  3. Search for classes and construct a tentative schedule before meeting with your adviser. Investigate course prerequisites and the need for special registration permission.
  4. Obtain all materials you will need for your meeting with your adviser. You can download the following from the Gallatin website (at http://www.nyu.edu/gallatin/current/ma/forms.html) or pick them up at Gallatin's Office of Student Services:
    • Plan of Study (one for fall, one for spring, and one for summer)
    • Non-classroom registration forms - Independent Study, Tutorial, Internship, Private Lesson, Review of the Literature
  5. Meet with your adviser to discuss your Plan of Study and course selections, and obtain your adviser’s approval signature on all necessary forms.
  6. Obtain electronic adviser clearance by bringing your adviser-approved Plan of Study form to Gallatin ’s Office of Student Services (715 Broadway, 8th floor). You CANNOT register if you do not receive electronic adviser clearance.
  7. Register for classes using Albert.
  8. Print your schedule and verify its accuracy. Once registered, you must correct any mistakes on your schedule BEFORE the first day of classes to avoid all financial penalties. Be aware that you are financially and academically responsible for all of your registration activity.
  9. Pay your tuition ON OR BEFORE the payment deadline to avoid finance charges. Go to Tuition & Financial Matters for more information.
