How to fill out your Program Planning Sheet and Register using OneStart

1.  You need to submit your Program Planning Sheet to the Music Graduate Office before registration

You will have a “negative service indicator” on your record that will block your registration until after you have submitted your Program Planning Sheet to the Music Graduate office.  You can pick up a Program Planning Sheet outside MU011.  You can also submit your Program Planning Sheet online by using this form.  If you submit your program planning sheet by paper in the Music Graduate Office, you will need to pick it up the following day. If you submit the online program planning sheet, you will receive an email once your program planning sheet has been reviewed.

2. The on-line Schedule of Classes and on-line course descriptions

The best version of the on-line Schedule of Classes is here (for summer 2008) or here (for fall 2008).  You can also see a PDF version of the Schedule on the Registrar's Office web site here (for summer 2008) or here (for fall 2008) or use the print-out we will have available in the lobby of the Music Graduate Office. 

 

You can see School of Music course descriptions on-line at here or here if instructors have chosen to post them.  For a summary of the Music History & Literature, Music Theory, and Music Education courses offered in summer session II 2008, see here. For a summary of the Music History & Literature, Music Theory, and Music Education courses offered in the fall semester 2008, see here.

 

For general registration information (minimum course load requirements, ensemble, masterclass, etc), please see this page.

3.  Remember to include the subject/catalog number, credit hours, and class number when you fill out your Program Planning sheet

The information you need in order to fill out your program planning sheet is the subject/catalog number, the number of credits, and the class number. 

 

In the example below, the subject/catalog number is MUS-M 542 (for a music course, the subject/catalog number will always start with MUS-).  The number of credits is in parentheses after the course title - (3 cr).  The class number is a four or five digit number always located under the subject/catalog number.  In this case, the class number is 8471.

 

MUS-M 542  MUS HIST REVIEW GRAD STDNTS 2 (3 CR)
               8471 RSTR     08:00A-08:50A   MWF    MA 454    Smith J                
 

Although all of this information is important, the class number is the most important information for your Program Planning Sheet and for when you register.

Registration on OneStart

After you get your Program Planning Sheet back from the Music Advising and Records Services office, you can register any time after your scheduled appointment time by following these steps.

• Log into OneStart (www.onestart.iu.edu) by clicking on the LOGIN button in the upper left hand corner of the home page.  You will log in with your IU user ID and password (the same ID and password you use to access your IU email account).  If you have problems logging into OneStart, call the UITS support center at 855-6789.
• Click on the SERVICES tab near the top of the page. Then click on the "Self-Service" link that will appear on the left side of the page.
• You will see a box in the upper left-hand corner of the page called “Student Center.” Click on Go to Student Center. You will then see a number of links related to registration.
• If you are going to register in lessons or any course that requires authorization, click on Class Permissions.  This will show you what classes you currently have authorization for.  If you do not have authorization for a class that requires it, contact the instructor of the class, have them email or call the Music Advising and Records Services office to let us know that you have permission to register for the course.  We will put the authorization into the system within 24 hours of hearing from the instructor.
• Click on Register and Drop/Add. You will have the option to either enter class numbers or to search for classes and add them to your Shopping Cart. Follow the instructions within the registration system. 
• If you have any problems, contact the Registrar’s office by either going to the Registration Center in Franklin Hall 101 (it will be open from 9 am to 4 pm Monday through Friday), calling 855-8200, or emailing reghelp@indiana.edu.  You can register on OneStart any time except 5 am to 6 am Monday through Saturday, and except midnight to 8 am on Sunday.

Hints about registering on OneStart

• Know your class numbers!  When you register, knowing your class numbers will simplify the registration process.
• After you have entered a class number or selected a course from your shopping cart, you will need to click on ENROLL NOW and FINISH ENROLLING to be completely enrolled in the class.  Always check the Status box to make sure it says Success each time you click submit.  If that the add is not successful, you will see a red “X” and an error message. Until the Status box says Success (with a green check mark), you are NOT registered for the class.  If you have a question about the error message, be sure to copy or write down the message before calling the Registrar's office (or the Music Graduate Office) so they have the information they need in order to answer your question.
• If you need to change your lesson credit hours after you have already registered in them, DO NOT DROP your lessons.  Click on the EDIT option at the top of the page. Select the appropriate course, then adjust the number of credits as necessary.  **If you drop a class that you needed permission to register for, you need to contact our office to get a new permission before you could add that class to your schedule again.**
• When you register for ensemble (choral - X070 or instrumental - X040), you may enter either the lecture number for the ensemble or the drill number listed for your instrument or voice type. On the next screen, you will be prompted to select the other course component – it does not matter which number you enter first. Click SELECT, then ENROLL NOW, then FINISH ENROLLING.

Waitlist Options

• There is a waitlist option on OneStart.  If you try to add a class and get the Errors found message that says the class is full, click in the OK to Waitlist checkbox and click on SUBMIT again.  You will then get an Add status of Success/Messages.  Always click on that link to get more information – that way you can find out your position on the waitlist.  For all Music History and Music Theory classes, instead of using theOneStart waitlist you will need to contact the Musicology/Music Theory Office (mustheor@indiana.edu) to be put on the waitlist for a class that is full.  For all voice courses (song literature, vocal pedagogy, and vocal diction), email the Voice Department (voicedep@indiana.edu) to be put on the waitlist.
• It is still possible to do what is called a contingent drop when you put yourself on a waitlist for a class on OneStart. If there is a specific class you want to drop from your schedule if your waitlist request is fulfilled, put the class number for that class in the Drop if enrolled field (located to the right of the OK the Waitlist checkbox) when you try to put yourself on the waitlist. 
• When you put yourself on the waitlist for a class you are waitlisting that particular section.  If the class has multiple times it meets (multiple sections) and you would like to be put into whichever section opens up first you need to put a waitlist on the class number for each meeting time. 

Schedule Adjustment

• You will have 24 hours after your initial registration to change your schedule on-line for free.  After that time, you will have an $8 fee when you access the registration system.  Every time you access the system for a $8 fee you will have 24 hours after that access time to change things without an additional fee.  So if you register on April 7, then log into the system at 1 pm on May 5 to change your schedule, you will be charged an $8 fee but will be able to log back into the system until 1 pm on May 6 for free. 
• You will be able to change your schedule on-line until the end of the first week of classes.  After that the procedure will change and the fees for changing your schedule will go up.  See here for to see the deadlines for registration and schedule adjustment.
• Late registration fees will start to be charged the week before classes start.  We suggest that you register as soon as you can to avoid problems with classes filling up.
