How do I enrol for a course?

Updated on

You can enrol for a course yourself in OSIRIS. In some cases, the student administration of your study programme will enrol you for courses. 

  1. There may be conditions attached to enrolment, such as entry requirements, pre-enrolment or waiting lists. This is usually indicated in the course description. 
  2. Enrolment for courses takes place in a specific period. This period may differ per faculty, programme or type of course. The enrolment period is mentioned with each course. 
  3. It is also possible to filter courses that are open for enrolment.

Please note: 

  • Exchange students can no longer enrole for courses themselves. Course enrolment will be done for them on the basis of their learning agreement. Any questions this may raise should be addressed to their faculty contact person.

Go to: > Enrol

Select the menu with the top left button, and go to "Enrol".

Choose what you want to Enrol for

Not all students get the same options when enrolment. 

For example, pre-master's students will only find the courses of their programme behind the Course button. Contract students cannot enrole themselves at all.

You can choose from the following options:

  • Course - enrol for courses
  • Pre-enrol elective education (only if this is part of your program)
  • Test - enrol for tests
  • Minor - enrol for minors
  • Specialisation - enrol for specialisations

Select 'COURSE'

You will now see a page where you can search for courses. Not all courses are open for enrolment. Courses with a red dot and an arrow in front of them are open. On this page you will see the following.

  1. A search bar where you can search (part of) the course code or the title of the course.
  2. The number of courses found that match the filters used.
  3. The filters used.
  4. A button to add or modify filters.
  5. A short description of the course, with the faculty and the number of credits
  6. An information icon allowing you to find the description of the content, objectives, starting blocks, entry requirements, etc.

Clicking on the course for which you want to register will take you to the following screen

Select the instructional modes you wish to attend, and click the red arrow button on the lower right of the page to continue.

In some cases, you will also have to choose the groupnumber of the instructional mode. If you are entitled to the use of facilities, you will be prompted to select these also.

Now confirm the enrolment by clicking the 'CONFIRM ENROLMENT' button.

At the bottom of the page you will receive a message that you have enroled successfully. You will also receive an automatically generated e-mail confirmation in your Radboud University mail account.

Questions about course enrolment can be addressed to the Student Information Point (StIP) of the faculty that offers the course. A list of Student Information Points can be found here.
