OASIS
Online Access to Student
Information Systems, is a tool
that makes information available to students, faculty, and staff
via the campus network. OASIS is the primary method that students
use to register for courses. OASIS was developed by Management
Information Systems in conjunction with the University Registrar.
Questions
related to connecting with the University network should be directed
to the Help Desk for Information Technology Services at 343-1631
or any school computer lab. Questions about the registration process,
use of OASIS, or dates and deadlines should be directed to school
registrars. A list of these can be found here.
OASIS
requires the use of a VUnet ID and an e-password. Information
about obtaining a VUnet ID can be found at VUnet
Services. Information on e-passwords, including instructions
for obtaining an e-password and dealing with forgotten e-passwords
is available here.
