Instructions

Verify your enrollment day and time on your PIN/Enrollment Appointment and Personal Data form.

2. Connect to PAWS

In your web browser, open a connection to http://www.students.ucr.edu/ and click on the "Access PAWS records" button. Once logged onto the site, choose the "Enrollment" option by clicking on the button.

3. Enter your Student ID Number

Your Social Security Number (SSN) is your Student ID Number. Some students do not have a SSN and have been assigned a Student ID Number. Enter that number.

4. Enter your Permanent Personal Identification Number (PERMPIN)

Your PERMPIN appears on your PIN/Enrollment Appointment and Personal Data form. Your PERMPIN is used to verify all access to your records on the web. It is also used to verify your access to grades on UCR STAR and course confirmation on UCR STAR in between enrollment periods

5. Enter your Registration Personal Identification Number (REGPIN)

Your Registration Personal Identification Number appears on your PIN/Enrollment Appointment and Personal Data form. Your REGPIN is used only to enroll, add, drop, or obtain confirmation of your enrollment during the enrollment period.

6. Enrolling for/adding a class

To enroll for/add a class, enter a call number, click on the "add" button, click on "okay," and wait for a response. If a discussion or laboratory section is required for enrollment in the desired course, you will be presented with a list of all open sections. Scroll to the section you would like to enroll in and click "okay."

If the class is available with either letter or Satisfactory/No Credit (S/NC) grading, you will be presented with that option. Click on the appropriate grading type and then click "okay."

If the class has variable units, you will be presented with a box showing the minimum number of units available. Click on the units in the box and select the number you wish to enroll in, then click "okay."

Follow these procedures for all courses in which you wish to enroll/add.

Be sure to plan for alternate sections and/or alternate courses before you begin your enrollment session as you will be disconnected from the web after three minutes of inactivity. Additionally, web enrollment sessions are limited to 15 minutes at a time. Even though you will be presented with a list of all open course sections from which to choose, if you start checking them for schedule compatability in the middle of your enrollment session, you may get timed out.

7. Dropping a class

To drop a class, enter a call number, click on the "drop" button, and then click on "okay." Follow this process for each course you wish to drop. The system will drop associated laboratory or discussion sections when you drop a lecture section.

8. Changing only a discussion or laboratory section

If you wish to change a discussion or laboratory section of a course while maintaining your lecture section, click on the "change" button and enter only the call number for the discussion or laboratory section you wish to drop. You will be presented with a list of all remaining open discussion or laboratory sections. Enter the call number for one of these sections. You must choose a new discussion or laboratory section before terminating your session--you cannot remain enrolled in the lecture without a corresponding discussion or laboratory.

To end your enrollment session, click on the "exit" button, then click on the "return to student records page" button. This will return you to www.students.ucr.edu.
