Registration Information for Master's Computer Science Students

Registration Information Archive

Starting with Summer 2008 registration, all non-degree and Master's Computer Science students need advisor clearance, before they can register for courses. Students are required to schedule an appointment with their advisor to review their progress towards degree and the courses they would like to take in the upcoming semester.

Master's and non-degree Master's students, should contact Jennifer Conlan Darlington, Program Administrator, M.S. Programs, at conlan@cs.nyu.edu or at (212) 998-3064 to set up an appointment. Master's students should bring a completed Degree Requirement form with them to their meeting. Students should either use the MSCS Degree Requirement Form or the MSIS Degree Requirement Form, depending on their program of study.

Due to the large number of students in our programs, students should set up their appointments with the Program Administrator early. Waiting to the last minute can delay your ability to register. Students do not need to wait until they have selected their classes to meet with the Program Administrator. The earlier the student can set up an appointment, the better. After a student meets with the Program Administrator and receives clearance, the student will be able to register for courses. Of course, the student does not have to register immediately once cleared. This allows students to have their meetings early, receive clearance and then register later on. Please be aware of the applicable registration dates and possible late fees. These are listed on our graduate program calendar, the Registrar and Bursar calendars:

If a student does not plan on registering for a course in any particular semester, with the exception of the summer, the student must register for Maintenance of Matriculation (G47.4747-001). Students will still need to set up an appointment and gain advisor clearance to register for Maintenance of Matriculation. For more information on Maintenance of Matriculation, visit:

Please note the act of registering generates related tuition charges for which students are financially responsible. Even before payment is due, students must officially drop courses before the first day of class in order to cancel tuition incurred by registering.
