Continuing Students

Approximately three weeks before continuing student registration begins, continuing students will receive a registration notice via their myUSF email. This notice provides pertinent information regarding the registration calendar, payment dates, registration holds, and registration access times.

Some continuing students may have advising holds placed. Those students must see their advisers in order to clear the hold. Even students without holds are still encouraged to meet with their advisers to discuss their registration and their degree progress.
