Enrolment
Enrolment is the process of choosing your courses and classes to build your timetable for the year.
Once you have completed Academic Registration, you can enrol via MyCampus, following the guidance on compulsory, recommended, and optional courses for your degree programme. Take me back to complete Academic Registration.
As a student, it is your responsibility to:
→ Choose suitable courses by requirements in myCampus for the correct number of academic credits
→ Select courses for both Semester 1 and Semester 2 (unless advised otherwise)
How to Enrol

Step 1: Login to Student Portal

Step 2: Enrol in Compulsory Courses
Please follow the enrolment guide, section 3
Use 'My Requirements' to select courses according to your degree programme and plan.
If your plan is incorrect, or if you wish to change the direction of your future studies, you must contact your Course Advisor to change it before you enrol.
'My Requirements' describes:
→ The overall course, grade and academic credit requirements
→ The compulsory courses you must enrol on
→ The optional courses available to you
During Enrolment, you may come across courses or classes that require specific qualifications, such as Highers, A-Levels, HNDs, HNCs, or undergraduate degrees as prerequisites.
You will be unable to enrol on these courses and classes until your results have been received by the University and processed in MyCampus.
If you find yourself in this position, please proceed to enrol in your other chosen courses and classes and return to complete Enrolment once your results are released.

Step 3: Enrol in Optional Courses (if applicable)
As you select courses and classes, you can see how these will fit into your timetable in 'My Choices'. This will help you to identify potential timetable clashes before enrolling.
- Use the 'check suitability' button in 'My Choices', which checks your class selections against your timetable and any course prerequisites, allowing you to make necessary adjustments before completing enrolment.
- Click 'View All' to see all class options available, and their scheduled days and times.
- Once you have ensured that your classes are correct and fit into your timetable with no clashes, you should confirm your selections and click 'Enrol' to complete Enrolment.
Places in classes are usually available on a first-come-first-served basis, so please enrol as soon as possible.

Step 4: View Your Timetable/UofG App
You can find your timetable in the Enrol tab, or directly via your MyGlasgow Student Portal.
Your timetable will display the class title, location and time. In some cases, it may also display the name of the course lecturer.
Your timetable will be automatically created in MyCampus as you enrol on courses and classes. If you switch or drop a course or class, your timetable will update automatically. When you have completed Enrolment, we would advise that you download the UofG Life App to more easily view your timetable. Please note, the app takes 24 hours to update any changes made to your timetable
Accessing the UofG Life App:
- Download the app on Apple Store or Google Play (alternatively, the web version is available here)
- Login using your GUID and password
- Select 'Timetable' at the bottom of the screen
- For on campus classes, select 'room details' in your timetable to get directions
- Select 'Find a Building' and 'Near Me' to navigate your way around the campus with our interactive map, including information on accessible routes
- Click 'Settings' to receive live notifications and/or SMS alerts about timetable changes
- Access other features including study space information and bookings, and student health and wellbeing services

Step 5: Making Changes
Following completion of enrolment, you may want to make changes to your timetable.
Drop a course:
You can drop a course from the opening of the registration period until the end of week two of teaching. Note you will only be able to switch courses if there are still places available in the alternative course or class.
It is advised that before dropping a course that you enrol in another course to make sure you have enough credits, as If you drop a course there is no guarantee that you will be able to re-enrol back in to the course once dropped.
Note for part-time students: If you wish to drop a course on or after you have completed your financial registration, there may be fee implications. At this stage, we recommend that you speak with your Adviser of Studies or Programme Administrator, who will be able to guide you.
Switch a Class:
If your timetable permits, you may be able to switch classes (move from one tutorial, lab, or seminar to another) during the first two weeks of teaching in any semester.
To switch a class, go here and use the "Switch a Class" guide.
If you attempt to switch a class and receive a message stating that you are already enrolled you will need to drop the course, and re-enrol on all sections.
Exceptions to Self-Enrolment
The majority of students must self-enrol through MyCampus. However, on some degree programmes you will be advised not to self-enrol, as you will be enrolled by staff from your school / college. The list of programmes and study routes exempt from self-enrolment is listed below. Please note the list is not exhaustive. Always follow the advice you have received from your programme team.
If you are a student on one of these programmes or study routes, please note that your courses and classes will appear in your timetable once you have been enrolled.
