preregistering
Reserving a spot ahead
Preregistering is signing up or enrolling in advance of a standard registration period.
Students preregister for next semester's courses before the term ends.
Researchers preregister studies by publicly documenting their hypotheses and methods before collecting data—a practice meant to prevent selective reporting of results.
I preregistered for the conference to get the early-bird rate.
