Priority registration is necessary for many academic accommodations and services such as extended time on tests, alternate format materials, etc. This is also an opportunity to plan a schedule that matches individual access needs. Priority registration can be completed independently; however, students who need accommodations or services to participate in priority registration should contact their DSO service provider. Appointments are also available to discuss access issues related to the class schedule. Responsibilities are as follows:

Adviser

Provide early advising and PIN's to allow students to participate in priority registration.

Student

Share a copy of the DSO Priority Registration email with your academic adviser to request early advisement and your PIN. DSO Service Providers are not Academic Advisors
After obtaining advisement and your PIN from your academic adviser, enter your desired schedule using the My Pack Portal on the NC State web site. The website is accessible using enlargement software or screen readers.
Submit a DSO Student Request for Accommodations form or Student Request for Services (Non ADA/504). It is strongly advised that you complete the form as soon as possible if you need accommodations and services that require advanced planning (Alternate Format, Accessible Websites, Interpreting, White Boards, Accessible Desks and Tables, Academic Assistants, Captioning, Text Access, etc.). This will allow arrangements to be made in advance of the semester so that accommodations and services are not delayed.

DSO

Send DSO students an email with information about procedures and window access dates. This email is sent in September for Spring semester registration and February for Summer Sessions and Fall semester registrations.

Notes

The academic department registers incoming freshmen. Registered students can contact their DSO service provider if assistance is needed regarding access issues related to the class schedule.
