Get ready for summer registration
Registration access times for Summer term 2026 become available to students on March 16. Registration will begin March 23.
It’s time to register for Summer Term and there are a few things you need to know.
Registering
Registration access times for students at the Bannatyne and Fort Garry campuses will be available in your Aurora Account on March 16.
To access your registration time:
- Log into Aurora.
- Select the “Open Registration Dashboard” card.
- Select ‘Registration Time and Status’.
- Choose the Academic Term from the dropdown menu to see your registration access time.
Once it is your registration date and time, you will only have that day to register. Beginning March 27th at 1:00 p.m., you will have 24/7 access until the last date to register.
If you can’t access your registration, make sure you are logging in to Aurora during your registration access time.
Once registration opens, you will have 24/7 access to register for courses in Aurora until registration closes.
To learn more, visit the Registration Steps webpage and watch the video tutorials available on the Aurora How-to’s webpage.
Holds
It’s a good idea to check if you have any holds or if your student status prevents registration. Make sure you clear these up before your registration access time.
Revision period
In summer term, the last date to drop a course and the last date to add a course are the same date. To help prepare you, please take note of these important deadlines found on the Important Dates and Deadlines page.
Waitlists
Waitlists for Summer Term will open on March 27th at 1:00 p.m.. Waitlist notifications will be sent to your UM email address, so be sure to check your email regularly. Once open, Waitlist Notifications are enabled 24/7.
- If you want to switch course sections, please contact your Advisor. You may not be able to switch sections when a course has a waitlist.
- If you miss the deadline to register for a waitlisted course you will need to re-register for the waitlist.
To learn more about waitlists, you can consult the Waitlist webpage.
For further questions, contact an academic advisor.
Tuition
Since courses span different parts of the term, there are two tuition fee payment deadlines for Summer term. The tuition fee payment deadline for courses beginning in May is May 20th, 2026. This includes both May-June and May-August courses. The deadline for July-August courses is July 9th, 2026.
