FRESHMEN - INTENT TO REGISTER

Introduction

All freshmen who have been admitted to CSUN must indicate their Intent to Register for classes in the upcoming fall semester by electronically filing their Intent to Register. Filing is easy. This guide explains how.

Note: File your Intent to Register for the Fall 2010 semester no later than 11:59 pm on Saturday, May 1, 2010. If you do not file by May 1, you will not be able to enroll in Fall 2010 classes.

When finished, print the My CheckList screen to verify your Intent to Register decision and save a copy for your records (see Step 9).

Step 1

Step 10

Congratulations! That’s it, except…

Revisit the Incomplete Tasks section of My CheckList to make sure CSUN is receiving your missing transcripts, test scores, and/or the other items required to complete your application. Your checklist will be updated as CSUN evaluates what you send.

Reminders:

For the Fall 2010 semester, be sure to:

  1. Ask your high school to send the CSUN Office of Admissions and Records your official transcript showing completion of the final semester of your senior year and verifying graduation date.
  2. Take the EPT and ELM placement tests (or be exempt) on or before June 19, 2010.  If you don’t satisfy this requirement, you will forfeit the opportunity to enroll at CSUN as a first-time freshman. For test information and online registration, see the CSUN Testing Center.

Learn more about your application status with the My (Admissions) CheckList How To Guide.
