ProArt Guidelines for:
How to Register for a Course at a ProArts Institution
- Cross-registration course offerings will be announced during each school’s add/drop period. Once courses have been announced, identify the course you wish to enroll in, and pick two back-up choices in case your first choice is full. View course offerings.
- Complete the online ProArts cross-registration application during the open ProArts registration period.
- All ProArts applications must be approved by Berklee and the host institution. Students will receive instructions within one to five business days after their application has been received and reviewed.
Boston Conservatory Students
You will be cross-registered by an administrator if your application is approved by both Berklee and the host institution. Instructions will be provided after your application has been submitted.
Berklee College of Music Students
If your ProArt application has been approved, you must register for a placeholder course on my.berklee.edu. Use the table below to find the course number (based on the number of credits) and the section (name of the host institution). For example, a three-credit course at Boston Architectural College would be PA-003-001.
