Spring 2026 Registration Survey

The Registrar's office is looking ahead to Spring 2026 Course Scheduling and would love your help in our preparation.

We have put together this survey to identify what you plan on taking in the upcoming terms. This survey will allow you to indicate how many, and which specific courses you would like to take. If you have already completed an academic planner with your graduate academic advisor, feel free to reference the courses from there. If you need to meet with academic advising to determine a long-range plan, please schedule an appointment with your academic advisor. 

Please note that this survey is intended for planning purposes only; completing the survey does not guarantee course offerings or registration. 

If you have questions or are running into issues accessing the survey, please contact registrar@bentley.edu.
