Registering for Classes
All matriculated students at ½ñÈÕ³Ô¹Ï register for classes using BiONiC. Undergraduate students may select courses from ½ñÈÕ³Ô¹Ï and Haverford College.
Students may register for classes two times each semester: preregistration (prior to the start of the semester) and during registration period (the first week and a half of classes).
If you need help with registering for courses in Bionic, visit our Bionic Tour help videos, or our Drop-In Help Hours!
Changes requested after the end of add/drop must be completed using the late add/drop form (found on the Change of Registration page), and approved by the student's Dean.

Searching for a Class
The SEARCH FOR CLASSES box is a flexible key word search. Type in a department name, subject code, faculty last name, word from a course title, etc and the search will return all courses that match. Here is an example of search for a course that will fulfill the Inquiry into the Past Approach to Inquiry requirement.
On the results page there are 40 courses that matched the keyword Inquiry into the Past. On the left there are additional filters you can apply to narrow your search. The filters are dynamic and reflect the class results. The list of SUBJECTS includes subjects in the search results, not all subjects
By selecting ARCH/Classical & Near Eastern Archaeology the search results show 4 classes that fulfill Inquiry into the Past.
When you click on a class you will see more details. You can expand the Course Information by clicking the triangle icon or Add to favorite Courses to save the course for later without adding it to your shopping cart.
