Register for your courses

Now that you’ve accepted your offer, you may be thinking about planning your courses for September. Course registration starts in June and takes place over several weeks. But there’s no action for you to take just yet. You will receive an email from UBC with your assigned registration date and time around mid-June. Registration emails will contain links to tutorials showing students how to create their saved schedules and how to register for their courses.

It is very important that you register at your assigned registration date and time – regardless of where you are in the world – for your best chance at securing your first choice of courses.

If you are eligible for credit for a first-year course, you will need to register for your courses as normal and then drop the courses you don’t need once your credits are updated in your Workday account in late July/August.

For more information about how to register, here’s information on registering for courses on the Okanagan campus and how to register for courses on the Vancouver campus.

Note: if you are admitted to your degree program in June, you may not receive an email. Late admitted students do not have wait for an email and can proceed with registration by following these instructions for the Okanagan campus and these instructions for the Vancouver campus. If you have questions, please contact Academic & Career Advising at UBC Okanagan or your Enrolment Services Advisor at UBC Vancouver.
