For Non-TCNJ Visiting Students

Non-TCNJ Students can easily request registration in Winter Session courses. Our college prides itself on providing all the exceptional quality of a TCNJ course over the condensed period of Winter Session. If students require more flexibility in order to avoid scheduling conflicts, they may choose to enroll in one of our Blended Learning courses or online courses. Blended Learning gives students considerably more freedom in their schedule by combining online assignments with on campus course time.

NOTE: If you are currently attending as a TCNJ student, DO NOT apply through the visiting student application to enroll in a winter course. Complete registration through your existing PAWS account.

Additional Considerations after Submitting a Registration Request Form

• After you have completed the registration request form, your request will be processed by our office.
• After you have completed the registration request form, you will receive an initial automated email letting you know that your request form was successfully submitted.  Submission of a visiting student registration request is not a guarantee of registration, your request will be processed within 24-48 business hours as stated on the form itself, enrollments are fluid and seats can neither be held nor guaranteed.
• You will receive a detailed e-mail confirmation letter within 24-48 business hours for your registration after your request is processed. This certifies your registration into the course. This e-mail will include payment instructions and your TCNJ PAWS ID number, which you will need to access your TCNJ accounts. Please make sure to add recreg@tcnj.edu to your email contacts or check your spam mail to make sure that the confirmation was not accidentally filtered into that folder.
• Instructions on paying your bill and accessing your accounts can be found here.
