Below you will find information on how to register for a course at another school, enroll in a directed study, or register for more than 18 credits in a semester. The Specialty Master’s and PhD Center has a collection of course syllabi and reviews for classes taken outside of BU. To view the book of course descriptions and recommendations for classes students have taken at other universities, visit the Specialty Master’s and PhD Center front desk.
Please note that in order to register for classes each semester, you must be in compliance with all University policies, including meeting all immunization requirements, settling your student account, acknowledging the Massachusetts Motor Vehicle Law, and having a current BU Alert number on record. To check your compliance status, click the “Personal” tab, and then select “Compliance Status.” Failing to update a BU Alert number every semester is the most common issue that keeps you out of compliance.

As of fall 2024, the University has transitioned to MyBU Student. In order to register:
Registration in the Boston Area Consortia is a formal agreement between Boston University and several local colleges and universities whereby BU students can attend courses at other institutions, and students from other institutions can attend courses at BU. The primary schools in the Cross Registration consortium are Boston College, Brandeis University, Tufts University, and Hebrew College.
More information on Cross registration for Boston Area Consortia (Boston College, Brandeis University, Tufts University, and Hebrew College).
If you wish to conduct research in a specific area of interest under the guidance of a faculty member, you may apply for a two or four credit directed study. A directed study may not substitute for a required course or duplicate an elective course already completed or that is offered at the college. Upon completion of the directed study, you will receive a grade from the sponsoring faculty member. The grade will be included in the computation of your grade point average.
You must have your faculty mentor’s permission and complete the Course Overload Policy & Tuition Waiver Form to register for more than 18 credits in a given semester. Every additional credit above 18 will incur per-credit charges. Charges for the course overload up to 20 credits are waived if at least one of the following conditions is met:
The University withdrawal/refund schedule, which is applicable only when students withdraw from ALL of their classes and submit a Withdrawal/Leave of Absence form with the assistance of their academic advisor, is as follows: https://www.bu.edu/reg/calendars/refund/
