Connecting from offices with Internet firewalls
If you are unable to log into the registration system from work and get an error stating the server did not respond or the address could not be found, your company has likely placed a firewall between you and the Internet. Firewalls are security measures which may limit the network ports you can access. If your firewall is blocking port 443 (required for Secure Socket Layer access, which provides encrypted authentication), you will not be able to access the registration system. Consult your office's IT department if you have questions about how the firewall is configured.

If a corporate firewall is blocking access to the registration system, you can either dial in to the Northwestern network from home (click here for instructions on configuring dial-up access) or register from a public computer.

Important Security and Usage Information

You MUST use your NetID and password to register for class. If you do not have this information, you will NOT be able to register. You may obtain a temporary password through Allyson Grey in the Part-Time MBA Program office, on 2M of Wieboldt Hall. She may be reached at (312) 503-6635 or via e-mail at a-grey@kellogg.northwestern.edu

Because your NetID password expires every 120 days, you have the option of changing your password now to make certain that it does not expire after you register. To change your password now, click here.

Registration Problems (Systemic)
Problems or questions with registration should be reported via email to the Part-Time MBA Program Registrar, Sarah Francis. If you call, please make sure to leave a call back number.

Protecting Your Account
In order to keep your account and class registration secure, you must EXIT Internet Explorer or Netscape completely after registering. This is especially important on public computers. If you do not close your web browser, you are still logged into the registration system and the next person who uses the computer could access your account.
