- Log in at goSFU with your computing ID and password.
- Either look at Account Inquiry in the main window (i.e. the "Student Center") or click on Self Service in the top drop-down menu and go to Campus Finances to find "Account Inquiry". Check if your Overall Balance is -$250 if you're a domestic student (-$5000 if you're an international student). This shows that the admission deposit has been paid, which will allow you to Enrol in classes.
- Check your Enrolment Appointment time, either in the Enrolment Dates box on the right side of the screen or under Enrolment.
- Check Class Search / Browse Catalog to see if you have prerequisites for the courses you are planning to enrol in and to check the time, day, and location of your chosen courses.
- Enrol in classes on or after your Enrolment Appointment date.
- You can continue to add or swap classes until the end of the first week of classes.
- You may drop classes after enrolling in them, but you should be aware of the potential academic and/or financial penalties, depending on when you drop a course. Deadlines will be confirmed shortly.
- Note that students in Surrey cohorts (such as FASS One, Science Year One) are normally expected to be enrolled at a minimum in their cohort core courses for each term of the cohort program.
- See more information on enrolling in Surrey courses. Please see your cohort advisor if you have any concerns about your enrolment.
- After courses are added, swapped, or dropped, always check your class schedule posted at the top of your Student Centre in gosfu.ca to see if those courses were successfully added, swapped, or dropped.
