Course registration instructions

If you need help or instructions on how to register online, by fax, phone, email or in person, please read the following.

  1. If the course is available for registration, the  or  button will appear.

    Click on the 'register now' button to link you to the BCIT registration site. Follow the instructions at the registration site. If the course has already begun, the IN PROGRESS button appears; IN PROGRESS means that the course has already started.

     

    Note that in some cases you must obtain program head or other approvals to register for a course you have selected. Contact the program head or program assistant [PDF, 85 KB] to obtain approvals.
  2. When registering online you can simply add courses to your cart and then proceed to registration. You aren't required to remember the details of each course you wish to register for.
  3. When you register by fax, mail, in person, or by phone, you'll need to have some information ready. Here's a checklist:

    • BCIT student number if you have one (A00...). If you are new to BCIT and do not have a BCIT student number, you can obtain one by completing the online form in the BCIT Secure Information System (you will be automatically forwarded to this site when you register online).
    • social insurance number (for tax receipts)
    • Name, mailing address and contact information (please include e-mail address)
    • work address (if applicable)
    • course number, name, CRN and course fees
    • payment information (e.g., credit card number and expiry date)

    You will receive confirmation of registration only if you've registered online or by credit card, in which case an e-mail statement of payment or credit card receipt will come to you within several days.

    BCIT uses and maintains information you provide for the purposes of admission, registration and other fundamental activities related to course of instruction in technological or vocational matters and subjects.
