Course Advising and Registration for Fall takes place during the week of New Student Orientation. You will attend advising with your program adviser during Orientation so that you can register (registration cannot occur without an approved advising form). The Calendar on this page lists program-specific advising days/times.

**Summer-Start Students: see "Summer-Start Students" section below.

Fall-Start Students: Course advising and Registration for newly admitted graduate students happens during Orientation in August. In early August, your Registration Information Sheet (RIS) will be available through the Office of the Registrar website. The RIS will show all your registration dates/times as well as links to the Course Schedule, Registration, your Tuition and Fee Bill and Student Accounts Receivable. You will also be able to determine if you have any registration bars attached to your record.

Course Waivers:

EDP suggests you review the Course Waiver process for EDP and submit any waivers (particularly Foundation Course waivers) before Orientation if possible, as waivers may affect what courses you are advised into during Orientation. You will receive an official Program of Work during Orientation, but you can get a good sense of what courses will likely be required by visiting the Program of Work page in the EDP Student Handbook.

More Information:

It is highly recommended that you refer to the following online publications prior to advising:

• EDP Student Handbook section on Advising/Registration
• UT's General Information and Graduate Catalogs
