Course Registration on Penn in Touch
https://sentry.isc.upenn.edu/intouch

During the summer, the main administrative office of the school in which you are enrolled will provide you with information on the procedures for course registration. Advance registration begins on Monday, June 30 and ends on Friday July 25 at 11:59pm. During this period you will be entering requests for courses in which you'd like to enroll. In order to access Penn InTouch you must have a valid PennKey and password. In early August a copy of your schedule will be mailed to you. Depending on course demand, the system may not be able to enroll you in all the courses you selected. Beginning August 11, you may request and drop courses in real time and know immediately if you have been enrolled in the course. During this Add/Drop period, requests are filled on a first-come, first-served basis. For more information on course registration, visit www.upenn.edu/registrar.
