Patriot Web is the university's new on-line system that allows you to search the Schedule of Classes for course offerings, register for classes and also pay any balance due. The system is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, with the exception of Sunday between the hours of 7:00 - 11:00 a.m. (exceptions are noted in the "System Information and Alerts" link from the Patriot Web homepage). George Mason students may access Patriot Web from any computer on or off campus, but must use Internet Explorer to access the system.

Official Communications to Students by E-mail

University officials will use electronic mail as the most expeditious means of communicating with you. Class materials, assignments, questions, and instructor feedback are examples, as are important communications from the Registrar, Student Accounts, Financial Aid, and your dean’s office. You will be responsible for the content of university communication sent to you by e-mail, and are required to activate your e-mail account and check
it regularly. Please see mail.gmu.edu for further information about your e-mail and other communication services.
