All students are required to register for the Graduate Seminar in Biomedical Engineering (BME 197S) for 4 2 semesters, presumably the first 4 2 semesters in the program. If a student is registered for three traditional courses for a total of 9 hours before adding that Graduate Seminar, do not add the Graduate Seminar (for a total of 10 hours) but still attend. A sign-in sheet is available at all in-person seminars and first- through third-year students should sign in.
...
Full-time registration for graduate students is 9 hours in fall, 9 hours in spring, and 3 hours in summer. If you plan to register for more than 9 hours in fall or spring or 3 hours in summer, consult with your faculty advisor to see if they are able and willing to cover the difference between 9 hours and the amount for which you plan to register. Register during your first access period to avoid any delay in the processing of your first paycheck for your assignment as a TA or GRA, or to prevent delays in delivery of fellowships.
Continuous Registration
In candidacy and wondering what to register for? Students admitted to candidacy are required to maintain continuous enrollment in dissertation hours. See the Advancing to Candidacy page for details.
...
Students on fellowships that include a tuition waiver will have waiver placed automatically. If you are not a 20-hour TA or GRA, do not request an employment tuition waiver.
...
The UT Board of Regents requires that all international students on F-1 and J-1 visas be covered by health insurance. Therefore, international students receive automatic charges for health insurance on their tuition bills each semester. Students may request an insurance waiver if they will be covered by an alternative insurance policy that meets the basic requirements of the UT Health Insurance Plan.
Students with a 20-hour GRA or TA assignment receive employee health insurance and should apply for a waiver of international health insurance fees. Waivers must be submitted twice per year; once for the fall semester, and once for the spring and summer semesters.
...
Once you register and complete all waivers, check your tuition bill. You will likely still have a balance if your advisor (GRA), the department (TAs) or the Graduate School or Cockrell School (Fellows) have not processed tuition payments yet.
| Warning |
|---|
| If your balance is zero, you must confirm registration to secure your courses, otherwise, your registration will be canceled. If you still have a balance to resolve, you must return to your tuition bill by the appropriate deadline to confirm registration. If your registration is canceled, you will be responsible to pay a late registration fee to re-register. |

...
After the 12th class day, additional permissions are required from the Graduate School to change registrationdropping a course is subject to the Q and Q/F drop policies. Contact the BME Graduate Coordinator if you need to change registration after the 12th class day.
