University of New England

Preregistration for returning undergraduate students will take place April 1-15 using the web registration tools available on U-ONLINE, UNE's Online Information Service. You are strongly encouraged to read this entire guide before starting the Advising/ Registration process as it will make your web-registration session much more successful. You may also click on any of the links below to take you to a specific page or resource:

All students who are eligible to participate in Web Registration have been assigned specific windows of time during which registration will be available. U-ONLINE refers to these assigned times as time-tickets. Time-tickets are assigned according to your program of study and/or your graduation year as shown below in the schedule. Please note: You will need to check U-ONLINE for the specific time-ticket attached to your ID and PIN. Please take note of your registration time ticket and plan your advising and registration session accordingly.

Web registration is highly encouraged. If you do not wish to register over the web, you may submit your Course Selection Worksheet (with your advisor's signature) to Registration Services. However, your preregistration will be held and entered on the last day of preregistration. So…in order take full advantage of your time ticket, give web registration a try. Any member of Registration Services will be glad to assist you on a station in the office. Just ask for help!

Academic Advising
All undergraduate students are required to contact your academic advisor prior to registration. Your advisor will distribute your Alternate PIN that will give you access to the online registration services. You may look up your current advisor assignment on U-ONLINE. To do this, login to U-ONLINE, select Student Services and Financial Aid; then Student Records; then General Student Information. Select the desired term and submit. Your advisor is listed in the Primary Advisor field.

Alternate PINs for Preregistration
All matriculated undergraduate students are required to use an Alternate PIN for preregistration. New Alternate PINs are assigned every registration term, so the Alternate PIN you used last term is no longer valid. You will receive your new Alternate PIN from your advisor when you meet with them to review your registration plans. Alternate PINs will not be required during Registration Adjustments or add/drop.

Course Selection Worksheet
As you plan your schedule with your advisor, record the CRNs in this worksheet so that you may reference them during your web-registration session. Your advisor's signature is not required for web registration, however, you may wish to keep a copy of the worksheet with your advisor's signature as a record of what you discussed during your meeting.

Administratively Preregistered Course Sections
In order to assist you with course selection, in some instances you may have been administratively preregistered in certain courses required for your major. This was done in collaboration with your department chair and Dean's Office. You will need to register for additional courses to maintain full time status of 12 - 18 credits, and it is highly recommended that you make every effort to schedule around these assigned sections. You may be able to make changes to this schedule, but if you change your registration we cannot guarantee you a seat.

Course Loads
An undergraduate student must be registered for at least 12 credits to be classified as full-time status. Being enrolled in less than 12 credits will result in part-time student status. This status may affect: financial aid, tuition billing, Veteran's Administration, NCAA, or other athletic eligibilities. It is the student's responsibility to monitor their own enrollment status.

Courses Not Available for Web-Registration
Some courses are not available on the web because they require additional documentation. Below is the information you need to register.

Preregistration

Students may register for courses by meeting with their advisor, completing a Course Selection Worksheet, and then entering their selections through U-ONLINE's Registration Services during their assigned registration days/time. Complete instructions for registering on line are found in the Guide to Web Registration. Students who do not register during the preregistration period will be charged a $75.00 late registration fee.

After the initial registration period (April 1-15), web-registration access will be temporarily closed to allow the Dean's Offices to adjust the course offerings schedule and to resolve any outstanding registration or advising issues.

Registration Adjustments
Web-registration will re-open for a Registration Adjustment period (May 1-31) when students must finalize their schedule and make any adjustments. Although your schedule will be considered final after May 31, it may still be subject to administrative changes due to staffing and scheduling changes in the Course Offerings.

Although web-registration will be closed for the summer, you may still monitor how these changes are affecting your schedule by accessing your student schedule online. For this reason, you will not be notified of changes that occur over the summer.

Registration Services will review all registrations at the end of the term to make sure that students are still eligible to remain enrolled in courses that are restricted by prerequisites, major, or academic standing. You will be administratively dropped from courses for which you are no longer eligible and it will be your responsibility to replace those courses during the adjustment and add/drop period.

Add/Drop
As always, students may make changes to their schedule during the add/drop period at the beginning of each term. For your convenience, add/drop will begin three weeks before the start of term and will end as scheduled on the academic calendar. (August 15 - September 9).

Withdrawal/Leave of Absence
A student may withdraw from all courses by completing either a Request for Leave of Absence Form or a Student Withdrawal Form. These forms are available at the Student Affairs Offices on both the University and Westbrook College Campuses, at the Registrar's Office on the University Campus, or at the Student Registration and Financial Services Office on the Westbrook College Campus. Note: The effective date of withdrawal is the date the University receives the completed paperwork. All tuition refunds are based on this effective date. Failure to properly withdraw may result in failing grades.
