Spring 2018 registration is now open. Registration is based on priority depending on class standing and then a randomization using NUID numbers. Each semester your day and time should change based on this system.

Some of you may encounter closed courses as you register. We recommend that you review your degree audit (your degree audit can be found in MyRed on your Home Page). There you can determine if there are other courses that will help you make progress toward your intended graduation date. That being said, you can keep those original planned classed in your shopping cart to check on availability later. We often see some movement in these classes, based on a variety of factors. We recommend you check occasionally on the availability.

Other tips:
-Review the prerequisites for courses to be sure you can stay in the courses in which our register, and that you are making progress toward your intended graduation goals.
-If a wait list is available for a closed course, get on it. If a waitlist is not in MyRed, you can email the instructor to determine if s/he will offer a waitlist.
-Use your degree audit to formulate a plan to graduation that allows you to see various routes to graduation. Again, the Degree Audit is found in MyRed on your home page.
-Use the CSE website to determine when CSE Technical Electives may be offered: https://cse.unl.edu/current-undergraduate - here you will find a “Course offering guide”. It should be noted that future course offerings can change, but it is a great way to begin the process of planning.
- Remember
The required CSCE 486 or 488 Professional Development course is a fall only course
The required CSCE 487 or 489 Senior Design course is a spring only course and must immediately follow the professional development course.

-Schedule a meeting with an advisor (usually through MyPlan) to review your plan to graduation, but be aware at this time of the semester appointments are filling fast. Advisors are here year round.
-If you cannot get in to see a CSE advisor immediately,
-you can schedule a meeting for later, but register for classes using your degree audit as a guide.
-try walk-in advising with your Advisor or through CAS Advising in Oldfather 107 or ESS Advising in Nebraska Hall W204

-MyPlan is found in Canvas (look in settings) –
You can find your Advisor in your “Success Network” in MyPlan
In general, there will be courses available that meet degree requirements but thoughtful planning can lessen the stress and keep you on track. As always, the advisors are here to help.
