Frequently asked questions

Online

  • What Browsers can I use with myUTH?

    We successfully tested all popular browsers with myUTH, with the exception of Microsoft Edge. Although most popular browsers will work, you may experience issues with certain 'versions' of a browser.

    If you experience issues, we suggest you clear the browser cache, close the browser completely and reopen. If this fails to resolve the issue, then try a different browser. The Helpdesk (713-486-4848) or the Registrar's Office (713-500-3388) will assist you with browser issues.

  • What if I forget my login information?

    User accounts are locked after 3 unsuccessful login attempts. When this happens a student will need to have the Helpdesk reset their password. This is done by calling 713-486-4848. Students cannot change passwords via email requests.

  • I heard that class search has changed – for the better!

    That is correct. Click on the Manages Classes tile from the student home page. Then click on class search in the left navigation bar. Students can enter the class prefix such as NURS to get a list of all Nursing courses. The search can be narrowed to only junior level courses by entering NURS 3%. Students can search for all courses whose descriptions contain the word Epidemiology by entering Epi%.

  • Do I have to move classes to the Shopping Cart to register for that class?

    When using the tile navigation a student can enroll in the course directly by clicking on it while using course search. The system asks you to verify that this is the course you intend to enroll. Click on the 'green' button in the upper left corner and the course is added to your class schedule.

    For all questions regarding use of myUTH for class registration call the Registrar's Office at 713-500-3388. For questions regarding courses that are needed for academic progress and graduation reach out to your advisor or your school's Student Affair's Office.

To Do List

  • What is the difference between a To Do List item and a hold?

    A To Do List item is a task the student /applicant needs to complete. A Hold has an impact on the student's ability to conduct business with the University such as registering for classes or requesting a transcript. Usually, there is a task associated with the hold (such as paying a bill) that once completed will remove the hold and allow the student to perform the transactions again that were prevented by the hold.

  • How do I find both my Holds and To Do List items in the upgraded environment?

    You can now find the Holds, To Do List items and Communications all within the 'Tasks' tile in the upper left-hand corner of your Home page.

    Tasks screen showing Holds, To Do List Items, and Communications with counts of 4, 9, and 0

  • How do I view my “To Do Lists”?

    Click on the 'Tasks' tile, then click on the appropriate link on the left hand menu to see the To Do List items. Click on the To Do item to see the details.

  • What is an Activity Guide?

    A Beginning of Term Activity Guide To Do item and Hold will appear on a student's account each semester approximately 2 weeks prior to open registration. (Early April, July and November) Students will click on the 'To Do List' Items link from the student home page (shown as blue bar in the image above). Once the Activity Guide is completed the Activity Guide Hold will automatically disappear. For additional explanation contact the Registrar's Office at 713-500-3388.
