Important Fall 2010 Registration Information

Registration for Fall 2010 for all currently enrolled students begins March 29, 2010 through the MyBlue portal for . There will be assigned registration times by student classification and NU ID number. Advisors must reset a flag to allow students to register, as has been done in the past.

Training for Office Associates on basic access (name, address, phone number, classes) to MyBlue/PeopleSoft begins in mid-February.

Training for faculty and department chairs will begin in late February. Training will be in a lecture format to train as many people as possible as quickly as possible.

Students began receiving email messages on January 8 with instructions for setting a password to allow access to MyBlue. Approximately 50% of 10,000 students have responded. Reminders will be sent in February.

Using PeopleSoft, all call numbers to all courses will be published. Classes can be set up to require faculty permission for registration.

Course IDs will not change (i.e. CDIS 110-01) for on campus classes. E-campus sections will no longer be designated by “80” or greater section numbers. The information on the course will say “web-based” course.

MyBlue/PeopleSoft is web-based and requires no special software on your computer besides a web browser. Recommended browser requirements can be viewed at the “Portal System Requirements” link on http://www.unk.edu/offices/its/itsweb/myblue/index.php.

The MyBlue portal is accessible at http://myblue.unk.edu but functionality is limited.

The Fall 2010 Class Schedule will contain no student registration instructions. Instructions will be posted in the MyBlue portal.

Note that students at other NU campuses will be able to view the UNK class schedule but will be unable to register for a class.

Degree audit for MyBlue/PeopleSoft will be available in January, 2011. Although some information may be accessible in the new degree audit application by November, advisors should plan to have no degree audit capabilities for Spring 2011 advising in October/November 2010.

The schedule for open registrations, drop/add and Summer Advising and Enrollment will be unchanged.

Registration for Summer 2011 and Fall 2011 will be simultaneous, as in the past. Summer 2010 and Fall 2010 registration were scheduled for separate time periods because of the change to MyBlue/PeopleSoft.
