How To View Enrollment Appointment [PDF] - graphical view.

Here is how to find enrollment appointments:

Log into MySJSU. If your view does not show as "Student Center", click on Self Service then Student Center.

Once the Student Center page opens, look at the right side of the page and you will see a box titled Enrollment Dates. Click on the link that says "details."

Next, highlight "Fall 2008" in the Select Term drop–down menu and click the "change" button to view your assigned enrollment dates.

The School of Library and Information Science has no control over announcements on or appointments set up through my.sjsu.edu. Contact erecords@sjsu.edu for these issues.
Go to my.sjsu.edu and register for your classes using the 5-digit class number identifying each class. Make sure you have changed the drop down box to Fall 2008.

If a class is full on my.sjsu.edu a message will say you need a permission number. Please disregard this message. We have no permission numbers. You should not e–mail the office or the instructor. This message means the class is full. You should check back later to see if a spot has opened. Or use the wait list feature.

If you add yourself to the waitlist you will automatically be put into a class if a spot opens up and you are next on the list. Note: The faculty have no part in this so there is no need to contact them. It is an automatic process.

Here is the wait list information:

Read the information about waitlisting carefully. Also read the FAQ carefully. In particular note that you cannot wait list yourself for different sections of a class.
