REGISTRATION MODALITIES
In order to register for your courses, you will need to have access to a COMPUTER AND INTERNET. All students who have access to internet during the registration period must register for courses using the online registration tool : Rabaska.
If, for very exceptional reasons, you do not have access to a computer and internet during the registration period, you can send your registration form by fax at 613-562-5869, you can scan it and send it by email to clawacad@uOttawa.ca (only scanned forms will be processed, emails containing lists of courses without a completed and signed registration form will not be accepted or processed) or you can drop off the form in person at the Academic Affairs Office before the registration dates listed above if you want to have your registration processed according to your group priority. Also, please note the following information:
- Forms received will be processed by draw at the same dates that the registration is scheduled online for each group.
- Forms received by fax, email or in person will not be prioritized.
- The only way to ensure that you will be registered in the deadlines that you personally wish is to register yourself through Rabaska or to delegate the registration of your courses to another person for you.
- We will not be confirming the reception of faxes and emails, make sure to keep a confirmation receipt for yourself.
- Once you are registered, you will not receive a confirmation by mail, fax or email. You will need to check in uoZone to confirm you are registered.
- If we see that you have been previously registered in the system when we process your form received by fax or by email, we will not process the form received at the Academic Affairs Office.
If submitting course selection form by fax, by email or in person, you must indicate alternative courses in case your priority courses are not available. The alternatives selected must be free of timetable and examination conflicts with all courses indicated in the priority list of the same term. Once all priority courses have been processed, we will use alternatives if we need to add courses to your schedule, and we will use these alternatives until we have determined that your credit hours meet the requirements.
