Attendance Policy:
To be able to register for classes at a Registration Day, you must arrive during Check-In and stay through the entire program. Check-in is an important process that allows our staff to prepare to advise you and help you register for classes. Attending Check-In ensures a smooth registration process as this is where we take care of important tasks like lifting holds.
We know attending a Registration Day can feel like a long day but it is important to attend the entire day to prepare you for success at UNO! Important information will be given during the day that you won't want to miss! We ask that you keep this in mind when signing up for your Registration Day.
Updated Guest Policy:
For our June and July First-Year sessions, construction work will temporarily limited the number of fire exits available in the University Center. In the interest of safety, we must restrict the number of guests that each student can bring with them to Registration Days. Each student will now be allowed to bring only one guest with them to the event.
ATTENTION: All freshmen students admitted with a high school cumulative GPA below 3.0 without test scores will need to submit a test score or take an Accuplacer test BEFORE the registration day (check your admit letter or online admissions portal for clarification). Please read the policy fully here* for important instructions to complete before meeting with your Advisor.
Please note, that guest and special students do not need to attend a registration day. Registration days are only required for first-time, full time students and Transfer students who have less than 60 credit hours transferring in.
