Required prior to registering:
eID:
Before registering for classes you must first have obtained your eID (electronic IDentification). If you have not done so, go to the eID website and select “Register for your eID.” You will use this eID to log onto RAMweb and other sites.
Advising:
All students should be advised prior to registering. All new students and many continuing students are assigned advising codes. This 6-digit number is required before registering and is given to you when you are advised. New students should attend orientation and will be advised at that session. To register for Orientation please contact The Center for Advising and Student Achievement (CASA). Continuing students should contact their major department for advising.
Registration Ready:
Before registering for classes, you will need to complete Registration Ready. To do so, log onto RAMweb. You will be asked questions having to do with your anticipated graduation date, whether or not you would like to purchase health insurance through the University, etc. You may also be asked to complete other tasks, if they are applicable to you. Once you have completed all your tasks, you will be able to register.
