First Steps

When you are ready, the next step will be to pay your enrollment deposit to secure your place in your major and any scholarships you may have been awarded.

Once You've Deposited

Register for Courses

If you’re beginning your studies in the fall semester, course registration can be done mid-April once your enrollment deposit has been paid. If you’re beginning in the spring semester, registration information is contained in your acceptance folder. Contact the appropriate department to begin the process and request a registration PIN. See below for contact information.

Please note that most students will be required to complete an online student readiness course prior to beginning classes. There is no cost and information on this course will be sent to you if you are required to complete it. Questions regarding the online readiness course can be directed to the Center for Online Learning, onlinelearning@alfredstate.edu, 607-587-3458.
