WebAdvisor Instructions
To Register:
• STEP 1. Login to your WebAdvisor account using your User Name/ID and Password (available from your registrar.)
•
STEP 2. Select “Check for Registration Blocks” in the main menu to
see if there are any blocks to your registration (e.g. Advisor block;
Health insurance block; Academic blocks; or blocks by the Business
office, Housing office or Library for money in arrears). These blocks
must be removed before the system will process your registration. All
blocks except for Health Insurance are cleared by contacting the office
that placed the block. To remove a Health Insurance Block see Resolving a Health Insurance Block for instructions.
• STEP 3. If you have no blocks and are taking no restricted courses skip STEP 4 and proceed to STEP 5.
•
STEP 4. Select “Enter Course PIN Codes for Restricted Courses” if you
have any restricted courses. Enter PIN code numbers for each
restricted course. This will allow you to register for those courses
when you enter them on the Registration screen. Return to the “Menu.”
•
STEP 5. Select “Registration” at Main Menu, then Select “Express
Registration.” (Remember to have the course numbers, and any other
information on hand.)
• STEP 6. Enter courses by completing the following columns:
~ Synonym: Leave blank.
~
Subject: Click on the arrow to the right of the column. You will see a
drop-down menu of fields/area. Select the area designation
for the first course for which you wish to register. Choose the
exact field designation.
~ Course: Enter the course number.
~ Section: Enter the section number (e.g., 01, 02).
~ Term: Click on the arrow to the right of the column. Select the
term for which you want to register.
• STEP 7. Repeat STEP 6 for each course you wish to take.
• STEP 8. After entering all of your courses Click submit.
•
STEP 9. The next screen displays the courses you have selected with
an “Action” column for selecting your choice of grading option. Click
on the drop-down menu to show the choices. Click on your choice.
•
STEP 10. On the same screen check the “Credits” column to confirm
that the number of units listed is correct. In the case of Variable
Unit courses, Special Reading Courses, and Cross Registration courses,
be sure to enter the correct number of units in the “Credits” column.
• STEP 11. After completing STEP 9 & STEP 10 Click submit.
•
STEP 12. If there are no errors, your completed registration will be
displayed on a screen entitled “Registration Results.” You may now
proceed to STEP 14. If there are errors (remaining registration
blocks or omitted PIN code for a restricted course), a screen showing
the errors next to the symbol “i” will appear. If this appears, you
must resolve all errors before the system will process your
registration. Proceed to STEP 13.
• STEP 13. Resolving Errors:
For these errors:
~ Audits not allowed: Select either credit option (Register Letter Grade or Register Pass/Fail) or Remove from List (see STEP 9)
~ Pass/Fail only: Select either Register Pass/Fail or Remove from List (see STEP 9) Click submit again.
For these errors:
~ Requires Instructor’s consent:
You must get a PIN code from the instructor. When you have a PIN code
enter it as described in STEP 4. Then follow registration procedures in
STEP 5.
~ Petition required: You must get a PIN code from the
instructor. When you have a PIN code enter it as described in STEP 4.
Then follow registration procedures in STEP 5.
~ Any remaining blocks: If any blocks remain at this point, the
system will not process your registration. You must: 1.) exit
Registration,
2.) resolve the blocks, and 3.) return to STEP 5 to complete your
registration (if you have not yet entered a PIN code, return to STEP
4). When all errors are resolved, return to Menu.
• STEP 14.
The Registration Results screen (has no “Action” column) is displayed
showing the results of your processed registration.
• STEP
15. If the Registration Results screen does not reflect the courses
for which you want to register, or the correct number of units for a
course, select “Register for Sections” (at bottom of page) which will
return you to STEP 5 where you can enter the needed changes.
•
STEP 16. The Registration Results screen shows both courses you are
currently taking and those for which you have registered for the coming
term. If your registration for the coming term is correct, click on
OK at the bottom of the screen to complete the web-based portion of
registration.
• STEP 17. Do a final review of your registration by going to “My Schedule.”
•
Click Log out. (If you don’t log out, your WebAdvisor account remains
open for a substantial amount of time and anyone at your computer can
make changes to your registration or view your academic, business and
financial aid records.)
