*Newsletter – December 6*

*Register! Register! NOW!*

Many returning students are still not registered for the spring semester.
The university will be canceling some low enrolled courses EARLY. If you
wait to register, the course you want may be gone! All URock course and
registration information is available
online<http://learn.maine.edu/rockland/courses-and-programs/spring-registration-dates-ums-campuses/>.
If you are a returning student, use self-service in Maine Street with no

from URock staff. Schedule an advising appointment asap through the URock
front office <[log in to unmask]> and get your schedule planned before
the holidays.
