How to browse/search for classes

The Registration Portal (registration.wayne.edu) has three areas where you can search for classes. The steps below are the same for all three areas:

  • Browse Classes allows you to search for classes without needing to log in.
  • Plan Ahead gives you the option to save your selected courses and, when available, sections of classes you wish to take. You can have your advisor review your choices and they can also create plans from which you can register. 
  • Register for Classes is where you register for classes and can adjust your schedule to add and drop.

IMPORTANT! 

Some classes have more than one meeting type. Hybrid classes have both an in-person and an online component. Each set of days of the week represents a part of the class. 

In the search results, you will see more than one set of days (Sunday Saturday) for each set of required times and days.

The Class Details panel will include multiple entries on the Instructor/Meeting times tab that can be expanded by clicking on the arrow to the left of the instructor's name.

Class Details

Clicking on the title of the course will pop open a Class Details window. Note the important information about deadlines for tuition cancellation and withdrawals. A tab-by-tab explanation of the Class Details panel is available at: How to read the Class Details panel
