The email will also contain a unique, nine-digit EMPLID required to activate your FSUID account.

Healthcare Compliance Information: As a new student to our university, Florida law requires you to provide health history and immunization information to the Health Compliance Office before you can register for classes. You can find the required form at University Health Services.
Health Insurance: Florida State requires that all full-time students have health insurance. You must either enroll in the University-sponsored plan or provide proof of comparable health insurance coverage by submitting your insurance information online at University Health Services. You cannot register for classes until you meet this annual requirement.
For course registration information, please visit the University Registrar's website. Course information is obtained and registration is performed online through myFSU Portal. You will also use this site to obtain your class schedule, check your grades, print an unofficial transcript, and update your records.
FSU has a mandatory first-class-meeting attendance policy. For information about this policy, consult the Academic Regulations section on the University Registrar website.
Coursework taken as a non-degree seeking student carries no degree credit. You may apply up to 15 semester hours earned as an undergraduate, non-degree seeking student toward an undergraduate degree only with the approval of the appropriate dean upon acceptance into a degree program. You may apply up to 12 semester hours earned as a graduate, non-degree seeking student toward a graduate degree only with the approval of the appropriate department chair and dean upon acceptance into a degree program (provided that you earn a grade of "B" [3.0] or better). Non-degree seeking students must adhere to the same academic rules that apply to degree-seeking students (e.g., application deadlines, fees, drop/add, withdrawals, grading, retention policies, etc.). Students who subsequently decide to pursue a degree must apply for admission as a degree-seeking student.
You can find the most up-to-date information on the basic cost of attendance at Admissions Transfer Finances. The cost of attendance, and our net-price calculator, are available through the Office of Financial Aid website.

You can access the FAQ by logging on to Student Business Services. You can also find information on Tuition & Fees as well as Payment Information on the Office of Student Business Services' website.
