Registration, Spring 2005

Once you have received confirmation of receipt after sending in the Online Advising Memo for Spring 2005, then you may register using the following procedure:

1. go to my.unt.edu and log in

2. choose 'academics'

3. if there is a + sign next to 'register for classes' then click on the + sign OR if there is a minus sign then click the underlined 'register for classes' and advance to step 5

4. click the underlined 'register for classes', then on the next page…

5. choose '2005 spring'

6. choose 'add classes' at bottom of screen

7. screen will look remarkably like the one below; click on one of the ‘magnifying glass’ icons

8. on the following screen type "SLIS" in the box labelled "Subject" then type the catalog number (for example, 5300) in the box labelled "catalog number". You may also benefit by entering other information about the class into the appropriate boxes. Press Search.

9. the results of your class search will appear; choose the class you want and then click on the box with the check mark in it, on the left hand side of your screen, to add the class to your schedule

10. your next screen will look like this; click ‘submit’

11. once you are on this next screen, click the box with the checkmark in it (next to the section of the class you wish to take)

12. once you get to the next screen, it will say that you have successfully added, or it will say that errors have been found. If you have been successfully added, repeat the process above as necessary until you have added all your classes. If errors were found, it is *most likely* because you have not been entered onto the class roster by a SLIS staff or faculty member yet, which can happen for several reasons. Those reasons:

Ø you are a new student, and cannot register at this time; new graduate students can "early register" between November 11-17

Ø you are a continuing student but did not request through the Online Advising Memo, to be added to the class

Ø you are a continuing student but you are trying to add a section of the class for which you are ineligible to enroll or which does not match the section you were placed in by SLIS staff

Ø you are a continuing student but insufficient time has elapsed since you submitted your Online Advising Memo

If the above reasons do not apply, and you still encounter errors, you may want to make sure that you do not have unpaid parking tickets, library fines, et cetera. If you were admitted provisionally because you did not turn in GRE or MAT scores, and this is your second semester or after, you may be blocked from registration until your successful test scores are received and posted.

13. When you have added all the classes for which you have been advised, you may go and pay for your classes at my.unt.edu (the same website you use to register). You MUST pay or arrange for payment for your classes by the semester deadline; it is your responsibility to note and meet the deadline, or your class schedule will disappear and you will have to register all over again at a later date. If you have arranged financial aid and your aid will cover your tuition and fees, then your classes should not be dropped and your aid will post sometime right before classes begin in January.
