Registration Systems

FSU is in the process of implementing a new course registration system. During this period of transition, different student populations will be using different applications to enroll in classes. Use the chart below to find the appropriate registration system for your student population. Click the link for that registration system in the right-hand column to learn more about that application.

Student Population Registration System
Freshmen students admitted for Summer and Fall 2025 Schedule Assistant
Transfer students admitted for Summer and Fall 2025 Stellic
All students admitted prior to Summer/Fall 2025 Stellic

I am a new freshman student admitted for Summer/Fall 2025. How do I enroll in classes?

  • Incoming freshmen students should use Schedule Assistant to search for and enroll (register) in classes. 
  • Watch a Schedule Assistant video tutorial Here. 
  • Review the How to Register in Schedule Assistant section of the Schedule Assistant website for step-by-step registration instructions.

How do I access Schedule Assistant?

  • Log-in to my.fsu.edu with user FSU username and password. After logging in, there are two options to reach Schedule Assistant.
  • Option 1: On the portal landing page, go to the My Courses section and click the link for Schedule Assistant under the Course Quicklinks.

NOTE: DO NOT CLICK THE LINKS FOR PLAN YOUR CLASSES OR ENROLL IN CLASSES AS THEY WILL NOT DIRECT YOU TO SCHEDULE ASSISTANT. 

  • Option 2: Click the SC icon under myFSU Links to go into Student Central. Once in Student Central, click the My Classes tile and then the link for Schedule Assistant.

What if I have trouble or get error messages when I try to enroll? 

  • Check the Registration Guide to make sure course registration is still open. Calendars for each semester are available at https://registrar.fsu.edu/publications/registration_guide/
  • Make sure you don’t have any holds remaining that block you from adding classes.
  • Double-check the term you selected is correct. Sometimes it defaults to the current term/semester.
  • Review the reserve capacity error message to find out more about the course limitations.
    • A reserve capacity (commonly called a reserve cap) is a segment of seats that can be held for certain populations within a class section. This may mean seats are reserved for students in certain majors, minors, certificates, or programs (Honors, CARE, an LLC, etc.).
      • You are unable to enroll in this class at this time. Available seats are reserved and you do not meet the reserve capacity requirements.
    • Try to find an alternate section of the class that is not reserved:
      • Go to the Shopping Cart and click the Edit button to remove this class from the cart,
      • Go to the Plan schedule tab and click the Sections gear for this course,
      • Review all sections and deselect any that have a reserved capacity you do not meet,
      • Click Generate schedule to see if an alternate section is available,
      • If a section without reserve capped seats is not available, remove this course from your Shopping cart and the Courses area, and search for an alternative course instead.
  • Reach out for help!
