Advising
All UT students have an advising bar on their registration automatically placed by the UT Registrar. In order to have the advising bar removed so you can register, you must first be advised by your faculty adviser. Your faculty adviser will assist you in filling out an Advising Form during your advising session with them, which will include your name, EID, and the courses you have been advised to take for the following semester. You must then turn in the completed and signed form in to EDP (instructions on the form), and the EDP registration staff person will remove your advising bar (and will or contact you with follow-up questions, if needed). Note: students must go over their Program of Work with the faculty adviser during the advising session.

Students must clear any other bars that may prevent timely registration, such as owing money for library books, money to the health center, etc. Any registration bars will be listed on UT Direct. Financial bars, in many cases, may be cleared by making payment online (What I Owe). For non-financial bars, you must contact the department listed on the bar details to have it cleared. Your Tip: Be sure to update your emergency contact information in UT Direct must also be updated annually annually, as failure to do so may result in a registration bar from UT.
Registration
You will register for each semester and summer session online through the Registrar’s online services. You should plan to advise at the first opportunity and register early, as courses can fill and delaying registration may limit your ability to add courses. General registration access periods are available via the UT Academic Calendar online, and your exact/specific registration times are available via your Registration Info Sheet (RIS), accessible via the UT Registrar's page. You must register as soon as possible to ensure your seat in the class, as well as ensure the course is not cancelled due to low enrollment. Do not register for classes that are not on your Advising Form. If you wish to change your advised class schedule, you must notify your faculty adviser and the EDP registration staff person. For restricted non-EDP (out-of-department) courses, you must contact that department for permission to add their class. If you have issues getting into any of your EDP classes, or have other registration issues not addressed on this page, contact Kim.
