Quick Link: REGISTRATION CALENDAR
Your access to the online, self-service registration system begins with your enrollment appointment date and time and continues through the end of the Late Registration/Schedule Adjustment period.
Start enrolling as early as possible to get the classes you need to graduate.
Please note: CSUN makes every effort to ensure the accuracy of calendar dates. Updates may become necessary. All information is subject to change without notice.
Manage your time with these tips:
- View your enrollment appointment in your CSUN Portal Checklist.
Tip: Watch your CSUN email account for a “Registration Notice” from the Office of the Registrar several weeks before registration begins. Your appointment will display in the Checklist at that time. If no appointment displays, contact your academic advisor to schedule an advisement meeting.
Helpful: Enrollment Appointment FAQ
- Prepare to enroll as outlined at Before You Register and How to Register.
- Become familiar with the three registration periods; each period permits different activities. Note key dates in the Registration Calendar for activities such as: wait-listing, repeating a CSUN course, needing permission to add, the last day to drop one or more classes online, and the last day to access self-service registration to add classes.
- Adjust your schedule after classes begin if necessary. Access to all enrollment transactions (add, drop, swap, change grading basis) continues through the third or fourth week of fall and spring classes based on your class level as follows:
- New for Fall 2025 and on! Graduate students working toward a master’s, doctorate, credential or certificate have until the end of Week 3 (the third Friday) to drop one or more classes online.
- Undergraduate students working toward a first or second bachelor’s degree continue to have until the end of Week 4 (day can vary) to drop classes or change grading basis online.
