Sisu instructions: Problems with registering for courses

If you have problems with registering for a course contact the person responsible for the course unit. You can find the responsible persons in Sisu on the course's info sheet on the Completion methods tab under the teaching in question.

Sisu says that I do not meet the "The correct version of the course is included in the primary study plan" requirement even though the course is in my primary study plan.

This problem can be caused by having a different version of the course in your study plan versus your registration. This can happen, for example, if you register for a teaching first and then switch the course to a newer version in your study plan. (Instructions for switching versions in your study plan)

Check the version of the course in your study plan and registration by opening the course's info sheet from both your study plan and your registration (on Sisu's Registration tab). See that the versions have the same academic years listed.

When you have different versions of a course in your study plan and you registration, you can fix the situation in the following way:

Make sure that your study plan has a version of the course with the same academic year during which the teaching you are registered for takes place. If the teaching you are registered for is not during one of the academic years listed in the course version in your study plan, change the course version in your study plan.

If the wrong version of the course is in your registration do the following:

1. Open the Registration tab.
2. If your registration is in the Registration processed column and is confirmed you do not need to do anything.
3. If your registration is in the registration(s) being processed column, registration has not ended, and a Cancel button is available:
   1. Select Cancel. Your registration should move to the Register column.
   2. Find your registraion in the Register column and select Remove course unit selection.
   3. Select the course unit again from under Uncompleted courses in the primary study plan.
   4. Register again in the Registration tab.
4. If you are rejected or going to be rejected and instead of the Cancel button there is a Re-register button, contact the person responsible for the teaching.

Can I enrol for a course before I have created a personal study plan (PSP) or before my custom module has been accepted?

You must have a PSP before you can enrol. Possible custom modules that differ from the normal curriculum of your programme do not have to be approved. 

I am an exchange student registered for a single semester. How do I register for courses that last the entire academic year?

Sisu requires that you have a valid study right for the whole duration of the course unit you register for. However, there are, for example, forms of independent study (essays, exams, etc.) where in practice you can complete the course unit without being around for the whole duration of the course unit. When your registration is automatically rejected in these situations, contact the teacher responsible for the course unit: they can confirm your registration manually.
