Registering for Courses

Registration for EXDP courses can only be done directly through the EXDP program office.

The Extended MPH Degree Program manages course registrations differently than in-residence programs. Students are required to fill out a course registration form each quarter and submit it directly to the EXDP Program Office. The EXDP program staff processes registrations and enters tuition charges into the university system.

Registration is an ongoing process that is generally completed at least 1 week before the quarter begins. At that point, students should all be able to log in to MyUW to check course registrations and pay their tuition.
