Check for Registration Hold(s)

Please note that MyUI is now defaulting to fall 2026. The session (upper-right) will need to be changed to view summer 2026 holds.

Registration holds may be added after you read this message, so it's important to check for holds before you plan to enroll in classes. Questions about holds should be directed to the office who placed the hold.

Additional Early Registration Information

Early Registration is the time during the current session that returning students can register for future session(s). Students are assigned a day and time during the Early Registration period ("day and time assignment") which is the earliest they can enroll in courses for the upcoming session(s). 

For undergraduate students, registration day and time assignments are determined by overall earned semester hours and do not include courses in progress that have not been graded. Visit Early Registration for more information.
