Registration Assistance

For registration assistance or questions, please email your academic advisor/success coach or schedule an appointment online. If your advisor/coach is not available, please email successcenter@SUSLA.edu and someone will be in touch soon.

First time freshmen and continuing students with less than 31 credit hours should consult with their Student Success Coach to determine which classes they will register for. Success Coaches are available to help these students prepare for their advising meetings and to help students navigate the registration process.  

The Office of the Registrar will provide information about academic policies, dates, and deadlines.

Please email your Success Coach with questions or email successcenter@SUSLA.edu and someone will be in touch as soon as possible.

 Did you receive a Banner Registration Error? Here are some tips for dealing with these concerns:

• Closed Class (capacity) – Seats in this course are full! Come back another day or waitlist to see if it opens up! (We recommend finding another course instead, so you can get enough credits for next semester).
• Time Conflict – Uh oh! You have another course at this time. Try a different section.
• Pre-requisite or Test Score Error – It looks like you need another course before this one. Check the course information on pre-requisites to know what you should take instead.
• Co-requisite or Test Score Error – Does this course require a lab class? Check to see if you need another course and register for these at the same time.
• Maximum Hours Exceeded – You’re going to be busy! Remember you need permission to go above 18 credit hours.
• Field of Study – Major – Are you officially in the major listed for this class? Check to make sure your major is correctly updated in the system. If necessary, reach out to the department to change your major and request an override. 
• Field of Study – Minor - Are you officially in the minor listed for this class? Check to make sure your minor is correctly updated in the system. If necessary, reach out to the department to change your minor and request an override.
• Student Attribute Restriction – Please find another course.
• Class Restriction- How long have you been a student? This class has a restriction for your year in college; check with your advisor if they suggested this particular course? If you are choosing an elective, go for a 100 or 200-level class instead.
• Level Restriction- Oops, you may be trying to sign up for an upper level class as an Undergraduate. Please find an alternative course.
