Registration
Advising
Each semester you must be advised. Once you receive the notice via email, pick up your advising form from the receptionist in WRW 215. Next, discuss with your advisor what classes you will take, obtain your advisor’s signature (new students must also obtain the EM Graduate Advisor’s signature in their first semester) and return the form to the receptionist. After your advising bar is cleared you can register.
See the instructions in the Course Schedule on how to register. UT has an online system called ROSE.
Zero-fee Bill
If after you register you get a zero-fee bill (your tuition and required fees have already been paid), you must still confirm that you are attending – It will say “Your registration is complete” when your registration is finalized.
