Office of the Registrar
Classes begin Monday, August 19!
All students are invited to attend. Student leaders are required to attend to be commissioned into their campus leadership vocations.
All students are invited to attend this convocation that officially opens the undergraduate academic year. New students, freshmen and transfers, are required to attend as they will be commissioned into their vocation as students.
Below is some important information you will need as you prepare for your return to campus.
Pay special attention to checking and clearing any holds you may have before you return to school.
Academic Calendar
Returning students must clear holds placed on their student account. Holds may be due to outstanding tuition payments, missing financial aid paperwork, missing health information, or other reasons. Students with holds will not be permitted to move into student housing, make changes to class schedules, or register for the next semester. Additionally, students with unresolved holds after the first week of school risk having classes removed from their fall schedule by the Registrar's office.
Steps to check and clear holds:
If a hold remains on your account when you arrive on campus, plan to visit the office responsible for the hold before moving into student housing or attending classes.
Office hours are M-F 8:00am – 4:30pm

Please pay close attention to the add/drop dates listed on the Academic Calendar. These dates will be strictly enforced.
Registration forms are located in MYCUl under "MyRegistrar" and "Registrar Student Forms." All forms must be complete and are due by 4:30pm (PT) on the deadline listed on the Academic Calendar. Forms are only processed during regular business hours. Registration policies are located in the catalog.
In addition to the add/drop policy, a student who does not attend the first day of class or notify the instructor of the absence in advance of the first class session, may be dropped at the instructor's prerogative. This is done only for impacted courses (closed courses with students waiting to add the course).
Check-In dates and times will be individually assigned. Freshman and Transfer students will move in on the first day of WOW, Friday, August 16 between 7:30am and 11:30am. Check-in for all continuing students is on Sunday, August 18. Check-in dates and times will be sent to your eagles email by August 1.
Can I move in early?
Unfortunately, we are unable to accommodate early move-ins due to cleaning and maintenance inspections that occur before our residents return to campus. Exceptions to this rule would be students involved in University-approved groups or organizations that have written approval from the Office of Residence Life.
When will I find out where I am assigned and who my roommate(s) will be?
If you did not participate in room selection last spring, we will place you in a housing assignment with other students using the Housing Placement Survey section of your Housing Application and your other designated housing preferences to find the best fit available for you. After you have been placed in a housing assignment, we will do our best to notify you regarding your housing details via your Eagles email by August 1.
What if I have a disagreement with my roommate and do not get along?
You should attempt to work out the problem by talking with your roommate directly. If residents are unable to agree or come up with a workable solution, we encourage you to contact your RA for assistance. Resident Directors will become involved when necessary, and in all cases in which a room change request has been submitted (due to roommate conflict). Room changes will be made on a space-available basis and are not guaranteed to occur. The dissatisfied roommate is the one who is responsible for moving.
Who is required to live on campus?
Those students who are 21 years of age or older at the start of WOW in August are not required to live on campus. Students who are 20 years of age or younger at the start of WOW in August are required to live on campus. Students who are 20 years of age or younger who desire to live off-campus must submit an Off-Campus Housing Appeal form by logging into cui.erezlife.com to submit the form by August 1.
What if I lose my room key?
Report any lost keys to the Office of Residence Life as soon as possible. Residents who lose keys will be charged a $75 fine for the re-key which will be ordered for your housing assignment to ensure you and your roommate/suite-mates' security.
How do I put in a maintenance request?
Any tech, internet, maintenance or furniture work orders can be submitted via the Helpdesk in your MY CUI portal. RES does not supervise these requests.
How do I report a policy violation?
If you are aware of a policy violation you can call the RA on-call phone and you will be assisted accordingly. If there is an emergency please call Campus Safety at 949-214-3000. You are always encouraged to contact your assigned hall RA for assistance as needed. The two phone numbers provided above are open to you 24/7.

Now that you are registered for classes, a billing statement will be available online. Student bills are emailed to your Eagles Email. You may view and pay your student bill online through My Records (select Student, then Student Bill). You will then be directed to Transact biling to view and pay your bill.
