Dental School Registration Policy

Marquette University utilizes a Web-based online registration process using Marquette’s CheckMarq Student Information System. In addition to offering the convenience of online registration, CheckMarq also offers early registration by permitting continuing and readmitted students to register for the next term during the previous term. New students begin registration at a somewhat later date, but still several weeks before the first day of class.

Students must have both a Marquette username and a CheckMarq password to register using the CheckMarq system. Information Technology Services assigns usernames to all new students for the duration of their studies at Marquette. To access the university's email system, students use the same username as CheckMarq.

Students complete their registration using the CheckMarq system. Procedures are located on the MU Central website. No class may be attended for which students are not properly registered. Proper registration includes the payment of all tuition and fees. Advising is required for all students prior to registration each term. Accordingly, students who register for course work without adviser approval assume full responsibility for their registration. Courses that do not satisfy the requirements of their programs of study are not applied toward the degree.

All courses for which students are officially registered as of the deadline to Add/Drop are subject to fee assessment and payment and appear as part of the permanent record. Students are responsible to review their official registration schedule prior to the deadline to Add/Drop and ensure that it accurately reflects the courses in which they plan to attend. Failure to attend a course does not relieve students of the obligation to pay any tuition and/or fees that are due.
