Spring Semester classes at the University of the Virgin Islands are scheduled to begin
on Monday, Jan. 14, 2013. Registration for continuing UVI students is now underway,
with access through the University's Banweb system, an online registration and student
information tool. Late registration for continuing students is set for Jan. 10 and
11, with an add/drop period scheduled from Jan. 14 to 18.
Returning students are reminded that they must first meet with their academic advisors
to prepare individual schedules, and obtain an alternate Personal Identification Number
(PIN), which is needed to access Banweb. To learn the names of their advisors, students
should contact the office of the dean of their school or college. Students may also
contact the Office of the Registrar or Associate Registrar via email at registrar@uvi.edu for assistance.
