How to Register
1. Get Started with STAR GPS Registration
Go to MyUH Services and navigate to STAR GPS Registration. Log in with your UH username and password.
On the GPS Registration tab, find the appropriate semester for which you plan to register for classes. Click on Register – Add/Drop Classes.
2. Welcome Screen, Introduction, and Tutorial Videos
The welcome screen appears the first time you access STAR GPS to register for courses. You will find videos that introduce STAR and provide tutorials for registration.
The videos are also available on STAR Help.
Click on Continue to Registration on the upper right hand corner of the page.
3. Update Your Student Record and Clear Holds
Review your Registration Status for holds or requirements that may prevent registration before you register. It is important you update your student record or clear any holds, if applicable, prior to the start of the registration period to avoid delays in registering for classes.
Click Continue when complete.
4. Build Your Course Schedule (Add Personal Choice)
To enroll in courses, click the +Add Personal Choice on the upper left side of the page.
Click Select a Course for the Requirement. The next screen will allow you to search and choose a course to add to your “Personal Choices.” Click +Add Personal Choice to select another course.
Note: Adding courses to your “personal choices” does NOT enroll you in courses. You must click on Submit Registration (on the right side bar) to submit your registration choices.
The screen is divided into three (3) sections. Use the left section to search for courses by specific characteristics. The most common way to search for courses is by Course Title (e.g. by course number, LAW 533, or course title, Constitutional Law) or CRN (five-digit Course Reference Number).
The middle section displays the courses found.
The right section shows your schedule and the courses you have chosen or have yet to choose.
- Be sure you choose the appropriate Campus and Semester. The search defaults to your primary campus and the current registration term.
- Search for courses using any of the filters shown in the left section. To see hidden filters, click Show More Filters to expand those options.
- The filters do not automatically reset, so be careful to de-select previous search filters as needed, to continue with your search.
- Remember to click Search every time you use the filters to change your search parameters.
For full and complete details and descriptions about Law courses, go to HOKU.

15. Limited Enrollment and Experiential Learning (Clinical) Law Classes
Space is limited and registration is first come, first served. If a course is full, check back periodically during the add/drop period to see if any students dropped the course(s) you are interested in.
You may add yourself to the waitlist of courses that may be currently full. If a seat is available, you will be notified at your UH email address with a short timeframe to update your registration. You must log onto STAR GPS Registration to register for the course. (You are not automatically enrolled in the course.)
The waitlist is available until the first day of classes. After the first day of class, students must check back periodically during the add/drop period to see if a seat is available in the course.
Students that register for a clinical course must attend the first class meeting or obtain permission from the professor to be excused from class. Any students who fail to attend may be administratively dropped from the course.
To request to enroll in a Directed Study, you must first complete the Directed Study Pre-Approval Form. Upon approval, you must complete and return the Directed Study Faculty Approval Form (PDF available under Registration Forms) with the professor's signature to the Registrar before the registration deadline to add a course.
To request to complete a Pacific/Asia Externship, you must obtain approval from the externship director prior to registration. Contact the Law School externship director and registrar for more information.
Law Students: With professor approval, law students may audit some law courses. Students must complete an Audit Approval Form (PDF available under Registration Forms). Return the completed approval form to the Registrar.
Non-Law Students: The Law School accepts only two types of external auditors: (1) classified UH graduate students; and (2) professional auditors. The Law School does not participate in the Na Kupuna program. For more information please refer to the William S. Richardson Auditing Policy for Non-Law Students.
19. Drop or Withdraw from a Course
- Click Drop or Edit to the left of the course title.
Drop = Drop or Withdraw from the course.
Edit = Choose a different course. - The registration status of the course on the left will change to "Pending."
Undo = Cancels the drop and resets to the original registered course. - Click Submit Registration.
For classes that are currently full and you would like to add yourself to the waitlist, click the Waitlist This Class button.
21. Register for Your Waitlisted Course
When a seat becomes available, you will be notified through your UH Email account. Once you receive the waitlist email, login to STAR GPS Registration.
- Find your waitlisted course. Click Add to Schedule.
- Click Submit Registration.
Please note that the waitlist remains in effect until the first day of classes. After the first day of classes, students may register for the course through STAR GPS registration as seats become available.
22. Request to Reserve a Parking Permit
Immediately after you have registered for classes (at least one), click the three lines in the upper right hand corner of the page (next to Make Payment) for a link to the UH Mānoa Commuter Services Office for instructions on how to request a parking permit.
Past experience has taught us that there are often technical glitches with the online parking reservation system when registration officially starts on the first day of registration. Because continuing law students and other graduate students have first priority on the Mānoa campus for reserving a parking permit, please be patient if the system gives you problems and contact the UH Mānoa Commuter Services Office for assistance. As long as you complete the parking permit reservation process on the first day of registration, permits are typically available.
Payment must be RECEIVED or you must sign up for the PAYMENT PLAN by the tuition due date, otherwise your registration MAY be cancelled. Financial aid recipients are to follow financial aid award instructions.
Tuition Payment Deadlines and Financial Aid Award Instructions
- Click Make Payment on the upper right to view your charges.
- Click Make Payment on the bottom to submit your payment. You will be sent to the online payment system.
Click the three lines on the upper right to open the hidden menu and print your course schedule.
Checking your course schedule often for errors or updates is highly recommended.
- Click Back to Pathway on the upper left. You will return to the Graduation Pathway screen.
- Click Logout on upper right.
