myZou for first-time users
MyZou is MU's online registration system. You can use it for a variety of things, from checking course availability and registering for classes to updating your personal information online.
First time login
- Go to myzou.missouri.edu.
- Login using your PawPrint and password (the same ones that you use to login to your MU e-mail account).
- A link called E-consent will appear on the left column; click on E-consent, read the terms and click on Accept. Accepting the terms of E-consent will enable you to view billing and finacial aid information in myZou. You will also have the ability to communicate via e-mail and the Internet with the Cashiers and Financial Aid offices regarding your aid and account balance with MU.
- Logout of myZou, and login again to start the registration process.
Additional myZou terms
- Drop a class to remove a class from your schedule. This link is an option on the student center page just below add a class.
- Swap a class allows you to make a change to your schedule by simultaneously dropping one class and adding another. If you are unable to enroll in a class that you are trying to add, the class you selected to drop will not be removed from your schedule. The swap a class function can be found on the dropdown menu below the enrollment option links.
- Edit a class allows you to change sections of the same class without completely removing the original section until the new section is confirmed on your schedule. This function can be found on the dropdown menu below the enrollment option links.
- Permissions are necessary when restrictions are placed on courses. There are two reasons why a permission number may be needed for a course:
- When a class is full, permission is needed to override the course capacity if the instructor or department allows additional students to enroll in the class.
- If a department or instructor wishes to monitor who enrolls in a class, they may require that students contact them for consent to enroll in the class.
- When a class is full, permission is needed to override the course capacity if the instructor or department allows additional students to enroll in the class.
- Wish list allows you to select possible courses before you are eligible to register. You can create a wish list of courses you would like to take using this function. Once you are eligible to register, you can select the courses to add to your official schedule.
