Choosing Graduate Courses
UMass Lowell graduate courses are held on campus, off campus and online. All Graduate Course descriptions are available in the Graduate Catalog.

Graduate courses currently being offered are listed by semester at the Registrar’s course schedule site.

Directions to off campus course locations are provided here.

Hold Flags (Service Indicators)
Service Indicators are used to help process a student's administrative records to facilitate registration.  If you have a hold on your account this will prevent you from registering.  Below are some of the common holds for a graduate student.

Graduate School Hold, contact the Registrar's Office (978) 934-2550.
Immunization Hold, contact Student Health Services (978) 934-4991.
International Student Hold, contact the International Students and Scholars Office (978) 934-2383.
