Class Registration
To live on campus, each resident must be a registered full-time for at least 12 credits. We've housed a lot of students, so we suggest registering for at least 15 credits to stay on track to graduation. On move-in day, students not registered for a full-time schedule will not be able to pick up their keys.
Contact First Year Experience for help registering for classes.
Vaccination Records
The state of Maryland requires all residential students at Maryland colleges and universities to provide proof of Meningitis vaccinations or a waiver declining that vaccine. Coppin State University also requires the Hepatitis B vaccination for residence on campus. You must provide proof and clearance of Hepatitis B vaccination as well as proof of your clearance, or waiver declining Meningitis no later than a week before move-in to be able to move on campus. Coppin State University no longer requires proof of Covid-19 vaccination to live on campus or a negative Covid-19 test prior to moving in to the residence halls.
