Registration at The University of Louisiana at Monroe has been extended to 8:00 p.m. on Monday, Aug. 19th and Tuesday, Aug. 20th. We have extended our late registration to allow more time for non-traditional students to register.

ULM invites new and returning students to enroll for the Fall 2002 Semester. Registration will be held at the ULM Student Union Building on Monday, August 19 (for last names beginning with A-L) 8:30 a.m. - 8:00 p.m. and Tuesday, August 20 (for last names beginning with M-Z) 8:30 a.m. - 8:00 p.m.

ULM President, Dr. James Cofer, said, "This represents the University's renewed commitment to provide excellent student services. We have many non-traditional students and these extended hours will help facilitate their registration. We are committed to provide these services to all of our students. We intend to increase our number of non- traditional students by adding an evening college beginning in the Spring 2003."

New students must contact the ULM Office of Recruitment/Admissions prior to registration. For additional information, please call 318-342-5252 or toll-free 800-372-5127.
