Introduction
This guide explains how to set your own registration appointment to enroll in summer classes and return to add classes or adjust your schedule. All students may follow these steps to register for summer classes.
- Eligible New and Continuing CSUN Students—Create your own appointment to register on a first-to-arrive basis. Then enroll later during the Registration-by-Appointment period.
- Visiting Summer Students— Wait to register until the Nonrestrictive and Late Registration periods. Note: Before enrolling, visiting summer students should set up their CSUN account, User ID and Password. See How to Establish Yourself in the System or contact The Tseng College of Extended Learning.
For summer registration dates and policies, visit the website for your student group below:
- Most CSUN students and visitors, see Summer Session through the Tseng College (Extended Learning).
- Special year-round CSUN cohort program students, see the Summer Term Bulletin. Permission numbers are required at all times to add all state-supported classes.
