Don't Say I Never Did Anything For Ya

All three campuses of the University of Illinois are transitioning to the new UI Integrate system for class registration. Thing is, the administration hasn't told anybody what the hell is going on. As such, here's how to get yourself set up to register and find out when your first registration time is.

1. Head on over to the http://courses.uiuc.edu/cis/index.html. This is the new home for all your course registration needs. You can play later, right now click on the UI-Integrate Self-Service link.

2. If you've already gone through the trouble of setting up your Enterprise password, skip this step. Otherwise, click on the obtain your EnterpriseID and set up your Enterprise Password link. It'll boot you over to a screen to reset your password. Thing is, this isn't what you want. Instead, you need to scroll down and click over to https://webprod.admin.uillinois.edu/eas/servlet/EasBluestemReset. It'll have you give your NetID and password, then will allow you to setup your Enterprise password. There's a long list of rules for your new password, but not duplicating another password isn't one of them, so feel free to do that and make your life easier.

3. Enterprise password fresh in hand, make your way back to the UI-Integrate Self-Service page. Click on your appropriate campus. Dunno why, as it doesn't remember it, but you still have to anyway. Enter your netID and brand spanking new enterprise password.

4. If this is your first time playing with Enterprise, click the "Continue" button and you'll be ready to play. To get to the registration stuff, click "Registration and Records," then "Registration" again. This gets you to the stuff that replaces UI Direct. Click on the "Registration Elligibility" link, then select your campus (again) to see when the system'll let you register. The other links on the "Registration" page seem to be self-evident for use when you actually are allowed to register.

5. There's no Logout, only an Exit for this. On the MCB lab's macs, this Exit thing did no good as we had to completely restart the browser in order to end the session.

Hope you can get yourself registered easily. The email's at the top of the page if you have questions, or you can torture the CITES helpdesk if that's your poison.
