New Student Class Registration
Registration is one of the first big steps as you embark on your academic journey, thats why we want to help guide you to success.

New Student Class Registration
At BGSU, students are assigned an Academic Advisor and Planner as part of their journey of becoming a Falcon. Our advisors support you in achieving academic, personal and professional goals and work with you to develop an ongoing partnership during Orientation to ensure this partnership continues throughout your time at the University.
Enrolling in your classes
CCP Students: If you are a student taking BGSU CCP classes, you may register for next semester on the enrollment date listed in your MyBGSU student account. New to BGSU students will follow the “Future Freshman” registration process according to the Orientation you are attending.
During orientation, you may have the opportunity to review on your class schedule with an academic advisor. Your advisor will work with you prior to orientation on your class schedule. Meanwhile, please start submitting any completed college credit or AP scores to the BGSU Office of Admissions.
Freshmen (Spring-Semester Orientation): For students starting in the spring semester, students will receive an email to their BGSU account from their Academic Advisor and Planner with instructions to schedule an advising appointment. Students can meet with their Academic Advisor and Planner before or after their Orientation day via phone, video, or in-person. Your Academic Advisor and Planner will work with you to learn about potential classes and the registration process. After the advising appointment, students will register for their own Spring semester classes.
