*NEW REGISTRATION PROCESS – We are pleased to announce the University has a new enhanced registration process to provide greater convenience to our students.

Students access Registration through Signon.stjohns.edu and select the New UIS Experience. 

They can also access the Registration links though - connect.stjohns.edu or use the connect app on a smart phone, choose the New UIS Experience widget. (If you don’t see the New UIS Experience widget on the mobile app click on the Find New Widgets icon on top right.)

Please view the Web Registration Instruction Worksheet

Before you begin the registration process:

  • Confirm your Registration Time Ticket (registration date and time) by selecting academic profile. Make sure to choose the semester you are registering for.
  • Check to see if you have any holds (select academic profile and select registration term). 
  • Review the Graduation checklist/summary of JD Requirements.
  • Run a personalized Degree Works Advisement report to review any degree requirements you have not yet met via the signon.stjohns.edu portal.
  • Be sure you have the necessary pre- or co-requisites for the courses you would like to take.
  • Classes may be closed, and you will want to place yourself on the waitlist. To do so you must select the “Waitlist” option and click “Submit Changes.”
  • Are you in an externship? Read the Externship Registration Instructions.
  • Are you in a clinic? You will be registered automatically by the Registrar’s Office.
  • Are you in both an externship and a clinic? You should not be! Law students may not be enrolled in a clinic and externship simultaneously, nor may you have any type of outside employment (even if unpaid or volunteer) while in a clinic unless the outside employment has been disclosed to and approved by your clinical professor.

Registration continues until the Add/Drop deadline. During the registration process, if you are admitted from the waitlist for a course, students will be notified via email and have twenty-four hours (24) to accept an open seat. 

Some courses will have seats reserved for specific groups.  The comment RESERVED SEATS will be made on the course schedule to indicate these courses.  The important thing for registration is that the course will look to be open when in fact it is the reserved seats that are open.  If the course appears open but it is indicated as reserved closed when you attempt to register for it, it is closed, and you should register on the waitlist.

If you have a particular question regarding course requirements, please email [email protected] with your questions.
