Registration and Sorting
Why didn't I get my activation code? Sometimes the emails from the site will go straight to your junk mail. You will need to check there first. Sometimes with AOL you may not get it so we suggest using Hotmail or Yahoo. The best thing to do is check your junk mail. If you still don't see it, please try requesting to get it sent again.
How do I get sorted? After reading the Hogwarts Rules and Guidelines and registering, you go to the Sorting hat board and click on the current Term's sorting. Answer the questions and then await your fate of the old Sorting Hat.
Why haven't I been sorted yet? There could be one of two reasons that you weren't sorted. It could be because the Administration have yet to come on to sort you. Please note that the site DOES NOT sort you automatically and that it is all done manually. But if you notice that others beneath you (posted after you) have been sorted and you have not, then it would be suggested that you read the rules again and more carefully, particularly the part regarding a proper name for your character.
I got sorted into a house I didn't want, can I change houses? No.
Class and Term Information
How do I sign up for classes? Go to the specific class board on site and click on their sign up sheets and fill out the information they require.
How many classes do I need to take? You are required to take AT LEAST two (2) classes to be promoted to the next year.
When does term start? You can tell what part of the term we are in based on the month that it says on the main table at the top of the site. The new term starts in September and goes till June, with July and August being Summer break.
How long is a month on site? Each real life week is one month site time. So one month of real time is four months on site. Therefore every three months is a whole year at Hogwarts.
How long do classes run? Classes start every Monday and continue on till Sunday night. Professors are supposed to post one lesson per (real) week. You have that week to attend class and complete the homework. Some professors may have their lessons extend for a few extra days or even another week because of long lessons but other than that, lessons should be updated weekly with a new one.
Miscellaneous
