STEP-BY-STEP REGISTRATION INSTRUCTIONS

Step 1: REVIEW DEGREE REQUIREMENTS

Since your first semester is entirely prescribed by program and specialization requirements, you may register for courses after reading each step in this Registration Guide.  We encourage you to participate in a mandatory online Registration Advisement Webinar as soon as possible to gain a more comprehensive understanding of degree requirements as well as important tips on registration and planning your program.

Please note that because of Capstone (which is a full-year course that only begins in the fall semester), full-time students who start in the spring semester will complete their degree in 2.5 years.

Program Requirements

For detailed information about your degree requirements including the Program Requirement Checksheets, please visit your program page:

Professional Experience Requirement

All MPA and MUP students are required to graduate with field experience that is relevant to their degree program. Consult the Professional Experience Requirement webpage for details regarding the requirement as well as relevant processes and materials.

Capstone

Capstone is the culmination of the core curriculum at Wagner and serves as students’ end event, and therefore, may not be undetaken until the foundational requirements have been completed. The Capstone prerequisites are listed on the Program Requirement Checksheets. 

IMPORTANT: Because Capstone is a FULL-YEAR course (starting fall semester, ending spring semester), students who do not complete the Capstone prerequisites will need at least ONE ADDITIONAL YEAR to complete their degree.
