Why do I need a Degree Evaluation and an Osprey Map?

The degree evaluation is a signed agreement between the Coggin College of Business and its degree-seeking students that provides the appropriate guidelines for students to follow to ensure their success in obtaining their undergraduate or graduate degrees. The University of North Florida requires that all degree-seeking students have a signed program of study for their major. The Osprey Map is a detailed guide for the best path for a student to take courses and serves as an excellent guide to students.
How do I register for classes?

Students can register for classes via myWings. Registration appointment time (time tickets) will also be posted in myWings. These time tickets are typically assigned by computer one week before registration is scheduled to begin.
How do I login to MyWings or change my Password?

View the OneStop Student Services page and follow the steps to login to myWings for the first time or change your UNF Login ID password.
What is a wait list and how does it work?

During registration, most departments offer waitlists for classes that fill to capacity. If the class you wish to register for is currently filled, you will have the option of signing up on a waitlist for that section. This feature tells you how many people have already signed up on the waitlist. If the class becomes open and you are the next name on the waitlist, you will automatically be registered for the course. Please note that you may not move into a class from the waitlist if registration in that section would cause you to exceed max hours, if you are already registered in another section of the class, or if you have a hold.

For more information concerning the waitlist, visit the Records & Registration Online Waitlist FAQ webpage.
