I have completed my application, and I am unable to register for courses. What should I do?

In order to register for courses, you must be admitted into the program that you applied for.

I am admitted into the program, but I still can’t register for courses. What should I do?

Your account may have an overdue balance which will place you on HOLD. In order to be able to register for courses, you must pay the fees that you owe.

Students who fail to pay their Fall and Fall/Winter course fees may be de-registered from their Winter Term courses. The University does not cancel students from on-going classes.

Students will have the option to re-register in courses (based on availability) once the outstanding balance has been paid.

When registering for courses online, do I select "sections" or "courses"? Also, am I selecting the "UW" term or the "graduate" term?

Students need to select “sections” instead of “courses”, and “graduate” terms instead of “UW” terms. Choosing the other options will not allow you to register for courses.
