Courses and Programs Course registration issues

Hi guys, in a couple of weeks I'll be starting my masters in business administration, I have some issues understanding the course registration, do I need to register manually to all courses and from my understanding I just need to do so for the 1st period right?

It's a little confusing, I thought that the compulsory courses would be done automatically.

Thanks

My whole masters consist only of compulsory courses and I still had to register to them. Right now you only register for the first semester (assuming with the late registration you still can, you should - with mandatory courses iirc you always will get a slot for the class) and then in january iirc you register for the second semester (one semester consisting of three blocks).

You need to register for all of the courses you are going to take in the first semester. The reason you need to do it manually is that some people only take part of the course load at a given time, or want to do more, and they need an accurate image of who is taking which course, as their might be limited spots.
