<p>So I'm trying to see what classes I would like to register for before orientation. I was wondering if anyone knew if Testudo is completely updated? I was also looking on ourumd.com and they have really different information on which classes are open and stuff...</p>
<p>Testudo is the official system through UMD. It’s updated once a day (maybe more often, but it’s not a minute-to-minute update). For information about class openings and such, definitely (!) look at Testudo. Ourumd.com is a separate and unaffiliated site, whereas Testudo shows how many seats are actually open, etc.</p>
<p>Thank you! Wow there are really not a lot of classes open right now…</p>
<p>They open up seats in classes as the summer goes on. Keep an eye out, and have patience. The first two weeks of class is the drop/add period, so there’s always a lot of shifting between classes (and so seats opening up) as students figure out their schedules.</p>
