 *   Process for Registration for Wharton MBA Courses

1)                  Instructor approval must be obtained for admittance to all MBA courses.

2)                  Students will drop signed and completed forms (a) in the MBA Program Office, and then check PennInTouch to see if access has been granted to desired course.  

3)           Resolve all time conflicts prior to submitting the non-MBA registration request form.   We will not be able to issue an “Authorization/Permit” if there is an existing conflict. 

4)           Since we may need to correspond with you regarding your registration status, please make sure to legibly write your email address on the Non-MBA Registration  form.

 

The MBA Program Office will process all non-MBA registration forms on September 17. 2009  All students will bring their instructor-approved forms to the MBA Program Office, and drop them in the designated box.  Processing will not be completed at the time of submission.  Forms will, however, be randomly processed.  By the end of the day on September 17, 2009, we expect all forms to have been processed. 

 

Students should be able to access PennInTouch on the evening of September 17 or shortly thereafter, and view the issuance of an “Authorization/Permit” (pending seat availability) for the course, at which time he/she should also be able to complete the registration.   Please note that “Authorizations/Permits” expire after 12 hours so students should not delay in accessing PennInTouch.  Please also note that instructor approval does not guarantee a seat.  Instructor approval simply guarantees the student is academically eligible to take the course.  Securing the class depends on seat availability.
