Registration Overview and Instructions

Registration for classes at the University of Georgia is conducted through OASIS, our on-line student information system. You can register anywhere you can access the internet and log on to OASIS. You are limited to ninety (90) minutes of registration time per day. General hours of availability of OASIS are 7am – 12 midnight daily.


Preliminary Steps:

Meet with your advisor. See your advisor to plan your schedule. Advisors or their designees must enter a registration clearance indication you have been advised before OASIS will permit you to register.

Check course authorizations. Check the Schedule of Classes for any special permission you will need to register for a class (e.g. Permission of Department [POD], or Permission of Honors [POH]) and see the appropriate department to obtain permission.

Check course prerequisites. Make sure you have the prerequisites to take the courses you have chosen. Many departments block registration to students who have not met prerequisites. For course prerequisites see the University Bulletin.

Check for flags. Go to the OASIS Registration Main Menu to check for flags on your record. Students with flags on their record for a given term will not be permitted to register for that term until the flag has been removed.

Check appointment time. While in the OASIS Registration Main Menu, check your registration time so that you can begin to register at the earliest possible opportunity.

To Access OASIS and Begin Registration
To access OASIS, start at the OASIS home page. here you will find a number of links that will assist you with all aspects of registration, including setting up and changing your OASIS PIN, operating hours, campus computer lab sites, and frequently asked questions.

    Registration Instructions

    To begin OASIS registration:
    • After logging into your MyUGA account click the OASIS icon at the top of the screen.
    • Type your Student ID Number (SSN). Do not press Enter.
    • Type your PIN (Personal Identification Number) and press ENTER. The first time you use OASIS, your PIN will be your birthday in the format MMDDYY (for example: May 9, 1986 would be entered as 050986).

    Changing your PIN:
    If this is the first time you have logged on to OASIS, you will be prompted to enter a new PIN.
    • Type your current PIN (your birthday if this is your first time or if your PIN has been reset.).
    • Type your new PIN, then press ENTER. Use 3 - 6 numbers for your PIN
    • Retype your new PIN for verification; press ENTER.

    OASIS Main Menu:
    You have reached the OASIS Main Menu screen. Choose option “1” Registration Main Menu and press Enter.

    Registration Main Menu: Choose option “5” Register or Adjust Schedule. If flags exist, you must clear them before you can register. Press Enter.

    To Add a Course:
    • Click the Add a Course icon.

    If you don’t know the Call Number use the prefix drop down menu to locate the course prefix. Click ‘Go’. All ‘Open’ courses with that prefix will be displayed. Press “Proceed” to view more courses. Highlight the course and click “add course.” The course should then appear in your schedule. You may also drop a course from your schedule by clicking on “drop a course” and entering the call number at the bottom of the page. While adding courses, if a course goes to your Course Pending area, you will probably need to add an accompanying course (see below for information about Pending courses).

    If you know the Call Number of the course, type the call number and press ENTER. The course will appear on your Confirmed Schedule area in the top right portion of the Register or Adjust Schedule screen. Repeat until all desired courses are scheduled.

    To search for courses by beginning time of the course, click ‘Go’ next to the search by time slot option. Place a check next to the desired time slot and press ‘Go.’ Only OPEN sections of the course will be displayed (classes already filled will not be shown).

    To view a worksheet showing your schedule, press the Worksheet tab on the left side of your screen.

    Pending Courses: Some courses for which you try to register may be placed in the Courses Pending But Not Confirmed section of the Register or Adjust Schedule screen.
    • You are NOT enrolled in courses that appear in Pending.
    • A class space is temporarily held for up to 15 minutes allowing you to resolve the situation causing the course to appear in Pending instead of Confirmed. For example, if you’re trying to register for CHEM 1211, you are normally required to also take the accompanying lab, CHEM 1211L. When you attempt to register for CHEM 1211, OASIS will place the class in Pending—temporarily holding it for you until you add CHEM 1211L to your schedule.
    • When the situation that caused a course to be placed in Pending is resolved, the course in Pending will automatically move to the Confirmed area.
    • On exiting OASIS, any courses still in Pending will be deleted.

    Exiting Registration: Press ‘Next Screen’ to leave the Register or Adjust Schedule section.

    Class Schedule: For your information and as a confirmation of your schedule, print this screen and save the printed copy. Press Exit.

    Fee Assessment/Waivers: On exiting the Register or Adjust Schedule screen, the Assess Additional Hours/Waive Fees screen may be accessed. Students eligible to do so may waive certain fees or assess additional hours. The option to assess additional hours allows a student to increase the tuition assessment for additional hours for which the student has not yet enrolled but intends to add at a later date.
