Last week of early registration! Here are 8 things to expect:

Here are 8 things to expect during early registration: 

  1. Early registration is now three weeks long instead of two, which means your assigned day may seem later than usual. But more often than not it still aligns with how many credit hours you’ve accrued. Take a look at the bottom of this page to see where you fall in relation to other students.
  2. Departments optimize their enrollment in a number of ways to ensure graduating students get the courses they need, including using waitlists. The best thing you can do is join them if a class (or section of a class) you want and need is full. Take a look at this Quick Guide if you need to know how to do so. Keep in mind that waitlist offers are not guaranteed, so register for whatever sections will keep you on track to graduate on your timeline.
  3. Like you, advisors are human and get sick or bear children or experience family emergencies, so we appreciate your patience as we ensure everyone is authorized to register in as timely a process as possible.
  4. You may not be able to register because you have a hold on your account. MyUI should indicate who to contact about lifting particular holds, but two of the most common are a late U-Bill or an unsigned Billing & Student Payment Agreement.
  5. Many courses have prerequisites, courses that you need to take before you can move onto the next. If Schedule Builder is saying you cannot register for a specific course, you may lack a prerequisite. If you are currently completing a prerequisite at another institution—not just wanting to take a course for which you are unqualified—you’ll need to Request Prerequisite Special Permission.
  6. If you’ve requested prerequisite special permission, that means you’ll need to submit a transcript as soon as the prerequisite is recorded so you don’t get removed from the Iowa course that requires it. Every institution has a unique but similar process; you can use this guide to help navigate it and get the transcript back to Iowa.
  7. Stress. You should expect stress. Fortunately, the University offers a number of resources to help you manage your well-being during this stressful time.
  8. Support. You should also expect support. Reach out to us—your advisor or our Information Desk—if you need support as the semester winds down.

Graphic Managing stress in the job search

Managing Stress in the Job Search Group
Thursdays from 3:30pm-4:30pm

Searching for a job is hard. Navigating a job search during a global pandemic can feel even harder. If you are feeling stressed, know that you aren’t alone.

Attend the “Managing Stress in the Job Search” group.

Facilitated by Career Center professionals, join in the discussion with other graduating seniors, practice stress management techniques, and learn some new job search strategies.

The group will take place every Thursday, but you do not have to make the weekly commitment. Join us when you can and when you need it.

We are here for you and are excited to support you in navigating the transition from college to career.

Each week will require separate registration through MyUI, and feel free to sign up for them all.

Virtual work group

All Tippie courses moving online for summer 2020

Looking for a way to stay connected to the Tippie community this summer? Consider an online course.

All Tippie course offerings for this summer 2020 are moving to an online format, meaning you can keep up with your course sequence and stay connected to the Tippie College of Business from the comfort of your home.

Registration is open now and continues through the deadline, May 18. Contact your advisor with questions.

Prereqs are checked – be prepared before you register!

What does this mean?

You will be blocked from adding a course or joining a waitlist if a course’s prerequisites are not completed or are not in progress.
You must earn the required grade in the prerequisite (usually a passing grade) or you will be removed from the course after UI grades are posted.
How can I see if I meet the prerequisites for the courses I want to take next semester?

You can easily check this in MyUI:

  • Login to MyUI
  • Go to Courses/Registration
  • Search for a course you’d like to take next semester.
  • Click into any section of that course.
  • In the “Prerequisites” field in the course description, you’ll be told whether or not you meet the prerequisite.

What if I’m taking a prerequisite at another school?

If you are taking a prerequisite course elsewhere, then you need to submit evidence of that through MyUI:

MyUI » Student Information » Courses and Grades » Request Prerequisite Special Permission

After completing the form at that link, we will review your evidence of enrollment.  If your course is equivalent to the UI prerequisite, then you will be given conditional permission to enroll in that course.  You’ll be able to register for the course at your registration time.

Once that course is finished, you then need to submit evidence of your final grade, again through MyUI.  You will receive correspondence from the Registrar’s Office with instruction on how to do this.

The Tippie website includes an FAQ page about prerequisites, and so if you’d like further information, please visit that page, or reach out to your advisor.

Interested In Taking a Class This Summer?  Registration Starts Next Week- March 9- March 13th.

Summer courses must meet minimum enrollments to be offered.  Cancellation decisions can be made at anytime, and we try to make decisions early to allow time for students to make other plans, if necessary. Consult with an academic advisor in the Undergraduate Program Office for academic planning.
