Prepare for Winter 2024 and Spring 2025 Early Registration

This message is intended for those eligible to register for classes via MyUI for winter 2024 and spring 2025 sessions.

Early Registration for winter 2024 and spring 2025 classes is Nov. 11-Dec. 6. To help you prepare, we have compiled a list of items you can take care of now to ensure your registration goes smoothly.

Check for Registration Holds

We show you do not currently have a registration hold, but it's important to check for holds as your registration date and time gets closer. Registration holds may be added after you read this message. Check to see if you have a registration hold by visiting MyUI. Holds are listed at the top of the screen on the "Courses/Registration" tab. Registration holds prohibit you from registering for classes until you take action to resolve the hold. Questions about holds should be directed to the office who placed the hold. 

You can find your registration date and time assignment in MyUI. Your registration date and time is the earliest you can register for the upcoming semester(s). It's important to know your registration date and time because classes can fill up quickly, and it's best not to wait until the last minute to register. Registration date and time assignments are determined by overall earned semester hours and do not include courses in progress that have not been graded.

The Office of the Registrar cannot adjust your registration date/time unless semester hours have been added to your record after your registration date/time was assigned. An example would be new transfer credits.

Prepare Your Schedule

Now it's time to build your schedule. Browse winter 2024 and spring 2025 courses in MyUI using Course Search. Use tools like Sample Plans, My Plan, and Schedule Builder to help plan for your upcoming registration.

Courses are subject to change. Be sure to check for any course changes closer to your registration date and time.  

If required for your major, schedule an appointment with your academic advisor in MyUI for authorization to register. Your advisor can also help to answer registration questions.  Not sure who your advisor is? You can find your advisor listed in MyUI under Programs of Study & Advisor.
