During the initial restricted enrolment period, ie from 24th November to 5th December, you can enrol in a maximum of 2 classes. 
What counts: (1) Classes in which you have successfully enrolled - your status will be "Enrolled"; (2) classes where you have been put on a waitlist pending tutor approval (ie mostly languages but some other classes also) - your status will be "waitlist", and (3) classes where you are waitlisted because it is full - your status will be "waitlist".

Phone Enrolments

Whilst we are happy to take phone enrolments (provided that you have renewed your membership prior to doing so), bear in mind that it may take you some time to get through to us.
You can enrol by phone from 10.00am on any enrolment day.
Voicemail
  • Monday, 20th November - voicemail received before 10.00am will NOT be actioned!
  • Friday, 24th November - you can't leave a voicemail at all 
  • Wednesday, 6th December -  voicemail received before 10.00am will NOT be actioned!
Please do not use multiple channels as this is confusing for us and wastes our time, ie don't leave a voicemail with your enrolment requests and also send an email with the same requests.
We will endeavour to reply to all voicemails with the outcome of your request.

Email Enrolments

Whilst we are happy to take email enrolments (provided that you have renewed your membership prior to doing so), bear in mind that it takes us a little longer to process these.
  • You can enrol by email from 10.00am on any of the main enrolment days: Monday, 20th November, Friday, 24th November and Wednesday, 6th December.
  • Any emails received before 10.00am on these days will NOT be actioned!
Please do not use multiple channels as this is confusing for us and wastes our time, ie don't send an email with your enrolment requests and also leave a voicemail with the same requests.
We will endeavour to reply to all emails with the outcome of your request.

Let's Do Registrations

Enrol in these as you would any other class – online through MyU3A or via the office.  Registrations for Let’s Do groups for 2018 do not count as part of your class quota.  You must register each year so that LD Co-ordinators have up-to-date lists of current members.

What you can do to help us

  1. Renew your membership by 20th November
  2. Read this advice carefully and adhere to these instructions
  3. If you are not enrolling via MyU3A, know the exact name, as published in the Guide, of the course/s that you want to enrol in
