## Frequently asked questions
#### [How do I confirm my acceptance into my program?](#collapse555385686)
You will be confirmed as a participant in the program once you have paid your admission deposit.
[How to pay](https://www.ucalgary.ca/registrar/finances/tuition-and-fees/how-pay-your-fees)
#### [I've paid my deposit, so why won't the system let me register for my courses?](#collapse1798712545)
Fees payments are not immediately reflected in the student portal. It takes two to five business days to process payment before you will be able to register.
[Learn more](https://www.ucalgary.ca/registrar/registration/enrolment-start-time)
#### [What will happen once my official transcript has been received?](#collapse1603931197)
Once your official transcripts are received, they will be removed from your to-do list in your [Student Centre](https://my.ucalgary.ca/). Having outstanding transcripts on your to-do list will not impact your ability to initialize your registration or register for courses in your first year. Please ensure your official documents are submitted as soon as possible, as eventually, a hold will appear on your account for these documents preventing future registration in courses once you've started the program.

Set up your UCalgary email and update your contact information in your [Student Centre](https://my.ucalgary.ca/). Learn more about UCalgary IT resources [here](https://ucalgary.service-now.com/it?id=it_kb_view).
