Vancouver Campus Academic Advising

Students can submit their course review request by clicking on the “Request Review” button under the “Advising” tab in the “Student Planning” section on Self-Service. 

Registration information is sent to your FDU email address 3 weeks prior to the first day of registration. Visit this page for more registration details. 

Registration deadline is the last day to add or drop a course according to the Academic Calendar, but we strongly advise students to plan courses in advance and register as soon as registration opens since courses can fill up quickly. The sooner you register, the more likely that you get your preferred courses/sections. 

You can refer to the webpage of Vancouver Undergraduate Programs and Vancouver Graduate Programs to review degree requirements of your program. 

A hold on your student account could be due to various reasons which can prevent you from registering. Please contact the Office of Enrollment Services at esvancouver@fdu.edu to find out the exact reason for the hold on your account. 

Academic advisors do not have any control over courses that are full.  

Place yourself on a “waitlist” to see if a seat becomes available or check with your program coordinator to see if capacity will be increased for a specific course.  

A seat will become available if another student drops or if there is a capacity increase. Waitlist works on a first-come-first-serve basis. You be notified by email when a seat becomes available for you, and it is your turn on the waitlist to register. If no one drops the course or if capacity cannot be increased, you need to find an alternative course to complete program requirements and/or maintain a full-time load. 

If a course you wish to register for has a pre-requisite, you must take and complete the pre-requisite course first.  

If your English Placement test score result is low, you will be registered for EPS courses as part of the Pre-University Program (PUP) or Pre-Master’s Program to help you with your academic writing skills and prepare you for upcoming courses in your program of studies.  

You can fill out and submit the Specialization Change Form. 

You can fill out and submit the Program Change form. 

Students who wish to take more than the maximum credit load allowed per term, must submit a Request for More than Full-Time Studies to the Office of Enrollment Services at esvancouver@fdu.edu. 

Statement of fees can be accessed under “Financial Information” on Self-Service after registration is completed.
