Last tips from the assistant registrar. Now go have a great semester!

So, you’ve registered for classes.  What’s the next step?
  1. Pay tuition and fees before published deadlines to avoid late fees.  Remember – you are responsible both academically and financially for your registration activity.  Information about tuition, fees and the payment process is located on our Semester Expenses page.
  2. Purchase your textbooks and supplies.  Read more at the Bookstore website.
  3. Remember to officially drop or withdraw by published deadlines (that was Sept. 6 this year) if you are unable to complete a course.  Failure to drop/withdraw may result in a grade of F or NB (no basis) for non-attendance and may impact your financial aid eligibility and grade point average (GPA).  Courses must be dropped within the 100 percent refund period (i.e. before the add/drop deadline) to avoid tuition and fee assessment.  Students may withdraw from courses online as long as they do not have any holds on their account.  These courses will have a W next to them on the student’s transcript and do not affect the GPA.  Students cannot withdraw from a course after a final grade has been assigned.
  4. Regularly check your email and UAOnline accounts for important information.  Be sure to confirm or update your preferred email address via the Personal Information tab in your UAOnline account because most university correspondence is sent there.  Be aware that any correspondence your instructor sends via Blackboard will go to your university email account (@alaska.edu). 
  5. Seek help early if you have questions or concerns about the registration process.  The Office of the Registrar is here to help!
Best wishes for a fantastic fall semester!
