Prepare for your appointment

You will need this information (it is also referred to as a single sign-on or SSO) to log into UAOnline for registration, adding/dropping and withdrawing from classes, and more.

During advising appointments, we often help you look up your DegreeWorks (an electronic degree audit/transcript) in UAOnline as well.

TIP: You can set up your UA username and password or change or reset your password using UA ELMO.

Most natural science courses and many GERs (general education requirements) at UAF require, at minimum, completion of WRTG 111X and a mathematics placement score.
