         Please take note that you will be given certain dates to register – this is your
         WEBR Status.

         You can register from the Start Date until the End Date, but try to register as
         soon as possible, as classes may fill up.

         First check these dates if you are having problems registering - if you get the
         message, “the institution has not permitted the use of this option to you
         as yet” then this could be because you are trying to register before or after
         these dates.
