Step by Step Registration Instructions

1. Logging in to the Student Self-Service System The following screen is located at https://apps.uillinois.edu/selfservice and is the first screen you will see when logging in to the Student Self-Service. On this screen, you will select the campus where you have been admitted and intend to enroll.

2. Once you have selected your campus, you will be required to enter your Enterprise ID and password. This screen contains a link to help first-time users obtain an Enterprise ID and set up an Enterprise Password that will allow access to Student Self-Service.

3. After you log in to the Student Self-Service, the first screen you will see is the Main Menu screen that welcomes you to the system and displays the menu options available to you:

• Select "Personal Information" to verify or change your contact information
• Select "Graduation Information" if you plan to graduate at the end of the semester.
• Select "Registration & Records" to begin registration.

4. The Registration & Records screen shows the registration menu options that are available to you now. Most pages within the Student Self-Service System include a "HELP" link located in the top right corner of the screen that will contain additional information to guide you through the system. To proceed directly to the registration screens, select "Registration".

5. The Registration screen lists menu options available to help you register for class sections. Before you attempt to register, select Registration Eligibility.

6. The Registration Eligibility screen lists important information about your ability to register for classes. If you are not eligible to register, specific information on this page will describe why you are not authorized to register. This screen lists:

• Your Time Ticket (the earliest time you are authorized to register)
• Your Academic Standing (if you're on probation you may be limited to fewer credits during registration)
• Student Status (if your status is not active, contact the Registration Help Line at (312) 996-8600 for assistance)
• Class (for example, enrollment in some classes may be limited to juniors or seniors)
• Curriculum (your degree, college, major)
• Holds on your record that prevent registration activity. You will not be permitted to add or drop classes if you have a registration hold.
• To view holds, click on the 'view holds' link at the bottom of the page.

7. To begin registration, Select a Term. Select a Term for the campus where you intend to enroll. If the term description contains "View Only", it means that registration has not yet opened for this term, but you may still view classes planned for this term.

8. Once you have selected a term and you are authorized to register, you can begin registering for classes.

• Use the Look-up or Select Classes menu option if you want to search for classes.
• Select Add/Drop Classes if you know which specific courses (along with the corresponding Course Reference Numbers (CRNs)) you wish to enroll in or drop (Step 10). Click "Submit" at the bottom to begin a search for classes.

9. Your class search results are displayed on the Look-Up or Select Classes Results page, allowing you to view class information and availability.

• If no classes are returned, you may need to broaden your search criteria.
• A "C" will appear under the "Select" column if a class section is closed. If you are eligible to enroll and the section is not closed, check the box in the "Select" column for sections you want, then click the "Register" box at the bottom of the page. If you select "Add to Worksheet", you will not be registered until you submit your registration worksheet.

10. If you are eligible to register and you know in advance which classes and corresponding Course Reference Numbers (or CRNs, a five digit number sequence to represent a specific class section) you wish to add, you can proceed to the Add-Drop Classes page.

On this page, type in one or more CRNs, then click the Submit Changes button at the bottom of the screen. Be sure to enter CRNs starting in the left-most box. If you skip the first box, the registration system will think you didn't enter any CRNs. If you are unable to register for a class, the error message will describe the reason you cannot register.

11. You may also drop a course on the Add-Drop Classes screen. To drop a course, select "Web Drop Course" from the drop-down menu listed below the "Action" column for a specific class you wish to drop, then click the "Submit Changes" button at the bottom of the screen.

Students are able to drop classes online up until the second Friday of the fall and spring terms, first Wednesday of Summer Session I or the first Friday of Summer Session II. Students will be able to drop all but their last class using the "Web Drop Course" function (e.g., you can drop four out of five classes online, but not the fifth).

Students wishing to withdraw from a term must submit the "Withdraw from Term/Cancel Registration" request to the Office of Registration and Records via Student Self-Service through the second Friday of the Semester (first Wednesday of Summer Session I or the first Friday of Summer Session II). NOTE: a request via Student Self-Service must be submitted for each term of enrollment. For instance, if enrolled for summer and fall, a student must "Withdraw from Term/Cancel Registration" via Student Self-Service for summer and fall. More details on this are provided on the Student Self-Service web page via the "Help" pull down menu.

12. After adding or dropping classes, verify your schedule. The Student Schedule - Detail screen displays information about your class enrollment and schedule.
