# Registering Delegations & Advisors

Advisor Accounts and Delegations must be created *before* students can be registered.

The following delegations predated the Secure Access/Access Center and *do not need to be created*: 

* Barrington
* Chariho
* Coventry
* Exeter West-Greenwich
* Hendricken
* La Salle
* Mount Saint Charles
* North Providence
* Pilgrim
* Prout
* Saint Mary-Bay View
* Saint Raphael

Any additional delegations created for the 75th Rhode Island Model Legislature (2021-2022) and beyond will need to utilize this process.

Delegations and advisors are linked together and created in a single step. A delegation can only have one advisor. Any school with more than one advisor must share the account for their delegation.
