How do I know what GenEd and Core Requirements I still need to fulfill?

What if classes I want are full?

If a class is full, find an alternative course to register for.  As of Spring 2012, Pacific Lutheran University no longer utilizes a wait list system.  If an opening occurs prior to the start of a term, a student may add a course at that time.

Do I need a code to register?

All currently enrolled undergraduate students need a Registration Access Code in order to register for the upcoming term.  This code is available from your academic advisor. It is best to make an appointment early, rather than waiting until the last minute to schedule an appointment.
