Late Registration

The late registration period for undergraduate and graduate students runs August 24 - 28, 2026.

All students late register using myUK. You must have your advisor hold lifted. (Most graduate students do not have advisor holds.) A $40 late fee will be assessed. This fee also applies to students who were enrolled in the Spring 2026 semester who did not register prior to August 24, 2026.

If you late register between August 24 - 28, your fees will be invoiced the first week of September and will be due by September 22, 2026. If payment is not received by the due date, a late fee of 1.50 percent will be assessed on the unpaid balance.

All invoices are sent to your university-assigned e-mail address. Check your e-mail regularly.
