Class Registration

If you chose an elective subject outside your recommended study plan, you may experience a clash between some of your classes. You may also experience a clash between your core classes if you choose a group that has not been allocated for your course.

If you have a clash with one of your elective classes, you should:

1. Discuss this with your coordinator in the first instance. If your coordinator agrees that you can still be registered in that class, contact the Student Centre providing your coordinators approval, OR
2. Change your subject enrolment (for elective subjects only), OR
3. Contact the Student Centre for further assistance if you are unable to change your enrolment.

If you have a clash with one of your core classes, you should:

1. Contact the Student Centre for further assistance.

If classes are closed in eStudent you will receive the following message when attempting to register:

Classes may appear closed because:

• The open date for class registration has not yet occurred. Click HERE to see the opening dates of class registration.
• The close date for class registration has occurred. Click HERE to see the closing dates of class registration. If class registration has closed, please contact the Student Centre for any registration changes.
• Class registration for your courses or subjects are managed by Scheduling Services.  For students studying Medicine in Cairns, Dentistry or Veterinary Science, your class registration will be managed by Scheduling Services. All you need to do is enrol in your subjects, though you will need to register in classes for elective subjects separately.

In some cases, you will see a class has more than one 'From' date (see screen shot below). This could mean either:

• The class is not run each week and breaks exist in the timetable.
• The class is held in a different location for one or more weeks.
• There is a different Academic teaching the class over the semester/trimester.

In the ‘Week Starting’ field, enter the first From Date of the class and click ‘Refresh’, see below screen shot:

The timetable grid will indicate all classes for the date selected and you can then use the back and forward arrows to view other weeks, see below screen shot:

If a class is full and there is no wait list available, the class will display an ‘Unavailable?’ link, see below screen shot:

If you hover over the link, a message will be displayed, see below screen shot:

In this instance, you should:

1. Select an alternate class that is not full for the activity, OR
2. Change your subject enrolment if you are unable to make it to an alternate class (if the class is for an elective subject), OR
3. Contact the Student Centre for further assistance if you are unable to change your enrolment.

If classes are full, you may be able to place yourself on a waitlist. A small grey ‘clock’ icon will display on the class if a waitlist is available, see below screen shot:

Click on the clock icon to go on to the waitlist for this class and then click ‘Save’.

You can see the status (i.e., position number) of your waitlist on the subject class registration grid, see below screen shot:

If you are still on a waitlist when your study commences, please contact the Student Centre.

When attempting to register for a class, you may receive a message advising that you are not eligible for a place in that class, see below screen shot:

Please contact Student Centre for further assistance.

Streamed classes are two or more connected classes.  Selecting a stream will register you into all classes associated with that stream.

If your subject has streamed classes, the class will have a 'chain link' icon in the top right corner of the class on the timetable grid, see below screen shot:

Click the checkbox next to the stream you want to register for from the list of streams that appear on the left of the timetable grid.

The classes included in the stream will be highlighted.
