Quick guide to course registration

Quick instructions for course registration in Sisu.

Degree students and exchange students.

  1. Log in to Sisu with your university user account and password. 
  2. Create a study plan template on the Structure of studies page. Choose your curriculum period based on the year you started your studies unless instructed otherwise. Creating a template is enough at this point if your study guidance takes place later. However, you need to add all the courses you want to register for to your primary study plan corresponding to your study right to ensure getting a grade on time. If you already have a study plan in Sisu, you can skip this step. 

  3. Go to the Registration page. Select a course unit on the course you want to register for and proceed to select the completion method (teaching / exam). Then register at the bottom of the page. There is a blue “Register” button on the course if the registration is active. After that, check the study right and choose a study group if needed. Lastly verify your registration.

    Alternative registration in the Study calendar: Choose the implementation you want to register for on the Registration tab of the calendar's selection assistant. Choose the study groups which fit your calendar. Then click the Register button at the bottom of the registration box.
