Find Course Sections: Search for Available Courses to Register for in the Upcoming Academic Period


After logging in to myUC, please follow these directions:

  1. Click on View All Apps at the bottom of the section called Quick Tasks.
  2. Click on the Academics app.
  3. Locate the Registration section, then click on Find Course Sections. This task enables you to search for course sections you are interested in taking during a specific academic period and verify your eligibility to register for them. 
  4. Click in the Start Date within drop-down box, selected Future Periods, then select the correct Academic Year you wish to view course options during.
  5. Select the Bi-term or Full-term options depending on which one you need to search for courses during.
  6. Click in the Academic Level drop-down box, then select either Graduate or Undergraduate.
  7. Click OK at the bottom of the page. 
  8. Using the filters on the left, you can continue to narrow your search. Some popular filters include Subject, Delivery Mode, Meeting Patterns, and more.
  9. If you know the course ID for a class you are interested in registering for, simply type it into the search bar and click Search. The course sections for just this course during your selected academic period will display. 
  10. You can click on Expand All at the top of the search results on the right side of the screen to see Section Details for each course section. Note information such as assigned instructor, delivery mode, and meeting pattern.
  11. When you locate a course section you are interested in, click on the preferred course section's name in blue text. Review the detailed course section information that displays.
  12. Click the Course name in blue text on this new screen.
  13. This will take you to a page where you will be able to note if you are eligible to enroll in this course. 
  14. Note: While you may notice that you have a button that offers you the option to register for this course here, the Find Course Sections task is NOT the preferred method for registration. You should make note of the courses that you want to add to your Academic Plan from your explanation here, and then follow the directions for Updating Your Academic Plan and Requesting Approval for your changes found in the "Update Academic Plan" guide.
  15. You can press the Back button in your browser to go back to search for more courses.
