Well, atleast your transfering into what you want to do. Goodluck with everythingSweetSeasons said:hehe, i gotta a tiny itsy bit teary eye'd when i went to sign out today
On a side note: I see UWS has changed its schools. I'm now doing an arts degree :/
Does anyone know how fast the university computers are at Parramatta concerning tutorial registration??? My tutorial rego (for 3/4 of units) is right in the middle of peer mentoring training and so I need to use the uni computers... but I don't want to miss out on my times. Thanks!

Tutorial registration is like our favourite time of year - its like christmas lol.
But it wouldn't make a difference if you were at uni or not. Either way, a computer is a computer and the internet is the internet, you've just gotta be prepared. Know what times you want in advance, some schools aren't as busy as other schools, it really depends what subjects your doing.

oh and thanks very much for posting this up cape!
so what are people strategies to get into tute rego?
the old sign in early and wait till its time to click into register or
wait till till 5 min till time and sigh in or
sign in at that time [and then bang your head against the desk because its showing no web page to display or the wait 30 secs until signing in again] or
wait a couple of hours after and then do it [as your school may not be as competitive]
or hack the computers at UWS and do it your way
mine? well none of them work...

Yes, if you have units fom more than 1 school, than you have to register them on the days that they are open, so you have to register on Feb 16 and 17 [that the times they are open]. And you dont have to go anywhere, you can do it on your computer, have they told you that yet? if not, you better head to http://www.uws.edu.au/students/stuadmin/tut_reg/instructions for the instructions and this to get mroe info http://www.uws.edu.au/students/stuadmin/tut_reg

greatNone, cause I don't have tute rego this semester (again)klh said:
For new students - when they get their offers and after enrolment - for tute rego, check the schools of your SUBJECTS, not course. And also, this tute rego is only for first semester.

yeah, just go to the tute rego page, sign in and then go to tutorial registration and then go down to the autumn 2006 and click on th ebuttons. the log in page is here http://platformweb.uws.edu.au/ ..i'd have thought UWS was gonna send you info, i hope they do soon.
Yes, Cape means like for instance you do a It subject like Programming Principles and another in Principle sof Professional Comunication, than Programming belongs to the School of Computing and Maths [oh theyve changed the names, ive forgotten abotu that] and Communication belongs to Arts, so remember that. If you dont know, search for the unit on the online handbook, but mysteriously its gone fomthe site coz i cant find it now...go to your course online and it shold show the units you are doing, click on them and theyll tell you.
Cape, you dont have TUTE REGO! I AM SO JEALOUS...thats one thing less to get angry about...and for the newies, tute rego is a frustrating excercise if you care to search for some of the threads in this forum, you ll find out... boo hoo...

What is online tutorial registration?
In regard to tutorial registration, "tutorial" refers to any type of teaching activity where you need to choose between a number of repeated activities within a unit. The teaching activities may be tutorials, practicals, classes or sometimes, even lectures. Not all units are available for online registration, but any not using online registration should have the alternative arrangements for registration appearing as comments on the timetable display. Online tutorial registration works on a first in, first served basis and lets you select your preferred activities through a web interface on the University of Western Sydney web site.
What do I need to complete tutorial registration?
A PC (Not a Mac. If you don’t have access to a PC go to the UWS computer lab on your campus)
Access to the internet
Your student ID
Completed enrolment into your units.
What do I do if I do not have a computer?
If you are an enrolled student, you will be able to gain access to the internet through the Information Technology labs on any of the University's campuses.
What is the difference between enrolments and tutorial registration?
Enrolment formally records the details required for you to complete your degree on the Student Record System. These details are the formal records of the course and units that you are completing. Tutorial registration is A secondary step that is used for some units only, so that you can select the specific tutorials or classes within a unit (where there is a choice) that you would like to attend. Your enrolment must be completed before you can complete tutorial registration. Tutorial registration aids in the allocation of students into teaching activities.
Why are there different opening times?
The opening times for tutorial registration are staggered across the schools to spread the load on the system.
Why does the system run slowly?
At opening times, the system is processing thousands of requests to register, this places the system under load and performance slows. Investigations are currently underway to improve this performance. Repeated requests to refresh your web page also increases the load on the system and further slows performance.
Do I need to register for all of the different activity types available in a unit?
You may need to register separately for tutorials, laboratories and practicals for the same unit. Registration in lectures is sometimes required. If you need/would like to do a lecture that has places showing, you must register for it. Sometimes the activities that you need to register for are grouped together within the unit so that you only register once. Please read the comment on each unit name for instructions on this matter.
Can I change my registration?
If you need to alter your registration details, you may do so at any stage leading up to the commencement of session. To do this, access the online tutorial registration system in the same way that you did to originally register. You can change your registration details up to 5 times for each unit in which you are enrolled. After that, you will need to contact the relevant school office for assistance.
Can I choose an activity on a campus other than my home campus?
Due to shortage of space on the Parramatta and Bankstown campuses, only students that have these campuses as their home campus can complete units on these campuses.
If you want to select activities on a campus other than your home campus, you must complete all of the activities within the unit on the same campus. To be able to register for those activities, you will need to obtain the written permission of the Unit Coordinator and submit a program variation form through your Student Centre.

Continuing from what Melsc so kindly copied and pasted
- After you enrol, and know what subjects your doing, work out the best timetable for you. That why you can pop onto tute rego knowing what you want.
- Be prepared for your internet to be very slow, even though it says don't refresh, refresh anyway, and you may need to have three or so internets open at one time during tute rego.
- A few days before tute rego, log onto pweb and take yourself on a guided tour around pweb (its so interesting)
- Log on slightly before the schools open
- Chuck a tanterum if you don't get the times that you wanted.
