Working with RST’s Advisor 

Scheduling an Appointment 

Pre-registration appointments are mandatory for all RST students. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Jason via email first.  

Registering for Classes 

Once you get your time ticket (which tells you when you can register for courses), you’ll know the best time to meet with Jason. Seniors, juniors, student-athletes, and James Scholars get to register first, so they’ll have earlier advising appointments. 

You will receive an email from the Office of the Registrar when your time ticket is available to view in Self-Service. If you don’t receive it, contact registration@illinois.edu. You can find important academic dates and deadlines, including the date that time tickets are available to view,  on the Office of the Registrar’s website

If you have trouble registering, email Jason your UIN, NET ID, and the error code (or a screenshot), and he’ll help you out.
