Registration requires use of your RUID (Rutgers student number) and

permission numbers. Once you are registered you may make changes to your schedule of courses using WEBREG. You may also visit the Registrar’s Office at the above address.
NETWORK ID: Rutgers policy requires all students to
establish a Network ID (NET ID). A NET ID is required for on line
address updates, PAC number changes, on line bill payment, viewing
transcripts and grades, establishing email and computer accounts, as
well as accessing other services . If you have formally accepted
admission, or are registered for a course you may establish your NET ID
by visiting this web site: https://identityservices.rutgers.edu/netidquery.
Once you have established a NET ID you are encouraged to create your
personalized portal to Rutgers University services and information,
