  • Students who are not registered will not receive academic credit and cannot attend classes.
  • All registration and changes in registration must be processed by the UMKC Registration and Records Office either in person or by using an approved electronic format such as Pathway.
  • A class schedule is published in Pathway prior to each semester and lists courses offered, meeting times and locations. The university reserves the right to cancel any course listed in the schedule without notice.

Adding a class

  • Students may add a class to their official records at any time through the first week of classes for a regular session.
  • Students who are not enrolled at the time a semester begins are subject to an additional fee.
  • Additions of courses after the first week of classes are deemed unusual and therefore require the approval and signatures of advisors and the instructor of record.
