The Ohio State University

An active OSU e-mail account is required to register for classes. The username for registration is your "lastname.#" (the same as your OSU e-mail address without the "osu.edu" part) and the registration password is the same as your OSU e-mail password.

The OSU Registration page at http://buckeyelink.osu.edu/ permits students to register, view fee information, and check their account statements.

• Health insurance is mandatory for enrolling in classes at OSU. Please choose either student health insurance (a monthly premium will be charged), or "No Coverage" which will require current health insurance provider information.

To view course descriptions and obtain call numbers for the desired academic quarter, click on "Browse Master Schedule".

• Remember to check the course availability as well. If a particular course or section of a course is filled, you may have to get the instructors permission to override a full section or add another section.

Once you have made your course selection, please click on "Web Registration for Courses" to proceed with registration.

• After all your call numbers have been entered, click on the "Update/Refresh" button in the webpage to add the courses to your schedule. To verify your schedule, click on "Final Report"
• Please remember to make sure that your course was added. If you needed any pre-requisites or there was some other problem in adding the course, you will receive an error message on the right side of the screen informing you of any problems.

A step-by-step demonstration of the web registration system can be found here.
