For newly admitted students, a "one-time-use" 6 digit number Personal Identification Number (PIN) is assigned to you. After accessing your Student Portal with the PIN, you will be asked to create a password. This password will be used for Student Portal access including registration throughout your enrollment at CSUF. If you need assistance with your username or password, select the "need help signing in?" link immediately below the "sign in" button on the CSUF Portal Sign In web page.
Any holds will be listed on your Student Homepage. All holds must be cleared prior to your TITAN registration appointment.
If a class for which you have registered is cancelled by the department, you will receive an email notification at your CSUF email address. You may attempt to add another class during TITAN registration on or after your appointment time.
Some courses have corequisites (see Class Notes in the online class schedule). You must register for the corresponding corequisite during the same registration transaction. Failure to do so may result in you being disenrolled from the course.
Some courses have course prerequisites (see Class Notes in the online class schedule) which, if not met, will result in you being unable to register for the course or being dropped by the instructor.
Some courses have test score prerequisites which, if not met, will result in you being unable to register for the course. Refer to the Placement Examinations section.
If grading for a course is listed as "Undergraduate Student Option", the course may be taken either for a letter grade (A,B,C,D) or as credit/no credit. If no option is chosen, the course will default to letter grade. Certain faculty designated courses may solely be taken as graded or as credit/no credit. To change the option from letter grade to Credit/No Credit or from Credit/No Credit to a letter grade, use the pull down menu under "Grading" at the time you enroll in the class. Grade option changes can be made online through approximately the second week of classes. The deadline is published on the Registration Calendar .
Waitlisting is available in the first week of the semester. If a course is full, you may try to obtain a place in the class by placing yourself on the waitlist. There is no guarantee that a space will become available in a class that is full. As space in the class becomes available, your name will advance on the waitlist. If enough students drop the course, you may be automatically enrolled from the waitlist.
Last day to enroll from the waitlist is Sunday, September 1, 2024.
Students will be moved from the waitlist into the class if space becomes available and in the order placed, unless any of the following restrictions apply:
If you cannot be moved from the waitlist, for any of the reasons given above, you will be skipped and the next student considered. You will not be reconsidered until the next time space becomes available in the class. Check your schedule regularly in your Student Homepage to monitor your position on a waitlist. If you decide you no longer wish to wait for space to become available, you should drop yourself from a waitlist.
A departmental permit is required to add a closed class.
The Student Homepage (formerly Student Center) is your gateway for updating contact information, checking admission status, viewing holds and to-do lists, enrolling in classes, paying fees and charges, checking financial aid status, viewing your unofficial transcript and more.

This article covers the basics of the fluid navigation on the Student Homepage in Titan Online.
Fluid navigation uses the latest technology (HTML5, JavaScript, CSS3) to enable Titan Online fluid pages to scale gracefully from large screen devices, such as desktops, to the reduced viewing space of smartphones and tablets. This means that the way you navigate stays consistent across devices, making it easier to access your Student Homepage from any device.
If you want to register in an independent study course, you must obtain written approval from the instructor and the department chair using the appropriate university form. During the semester, you and the instructor shall prepare a study plan and submit it to the department chair, or designee, for approval. The approved study plan shall be kept on file in the department or program office and shall include a statement of the basis for final evaluation of the independent study.
You may not take more than six units of independent study at the undergraduate level in a given semester or apply more than nine units of independent study toward completion of the undergraduate degree. If you are a graduate student, you may not apply more than six units of independent study toward the completion of a graduate degree unless written approval is obtained by the appropriate college dean.
Lower-division students normally enroll in Independent Study 299, upper division students in 499; and graduate students in 599, respectively. Independent study courses may be repeated.
Earn course credit while gaining practical experience related to your major by registering for an academic internship or service-learning course. Check your department for requirements and prerequisites. Be sure to start early (sometimes a semester ahead), especially if an academic internship is a graduation requirement for your major. Many placements are available at businesses, nonprofit organizations and government agencies at locations throughout southern California and opportunities may also be available out of state or overseas.
Experiential learning opportunities are high impact practices that allow students to expand their knowledge, apply theories and skills learned in the classroom, prepare for successful entry into the job market, and develop as socially responsible citizens. Participating in high impact practices like internships and service-learning can keep students on track for graduation, and prepare them for meaningful careers. Additionally, academic internship and service-learning courses offer opportunities for students to:
To learn more about the opportunities available within your major, contact your department of study or visit the CICE website at www.fullerton.edu/cice . You can also call us at (657) 278-3746.
Effective with the Spring 2024 semester, the stop-out policy allows undergraduate students and postbaccalaureate unclassified non-credential graduate students to be absent for two consecutive semesters and maintain their continuing student status. This includes election of catalog requirements for graduation and eligibility to register for the next semester. Disqualified students, foreign visa students, students on leaves approved for more than one year and students without approved leaves who are absent for more than two consecutive semesters must apply for readmission should they wish to return to Cal State Fullerton. Service members who are called to active duty or deployed should check with the Veteran's Resource Center at (657) 278-2373.
A leave of absence may be granted based on certain documented extenuating circumstances and normally is granted for not more than one year. Students must be in good academic standing and must have completed one semester at this university. A leave of absence is not granted in order for a student to return to a community college to take coursework for financial or academic reasons. An approved leave of absence authorizes the student to return without reapplying to the university and continue under the catalog requirements prior to the absence. Undergraduate and postbaccalaureate unclassified graduate students on approved leaves of one year (two academic semesters) or less are eligible to register for the semester immediately following the end of the leave. Complete and submit the Request for Leave of Absence online by Census Date for the semester the leave of absence is being submitted. Effective fall 2024, an Extended Leave of Absence will be provided to undergraduate students who used the two consecutive semesters of Stop Out for an additional two semesters if needed.
Graduate degree or credential students may be granted leaves of absence, up to two consecutive semesters, which maintain their place in the university and in degree or credential programs (i.e., they do not have to reapply following the leave). A leave of absence granted to a degree objective student also preserves the election of curriculum rights regarding catalog requirements. However, a leave of absence granted by the university does not extend time limitations imposed by the state for completing specific credential requirements nor does it extend the time limit for completing the master's or doctoral degree.
In the case of non-approved breaks in enrollment, reapplication for admission to the university and to the chosen degree or credential program will be required. A place in the degree/credential program or in the university will not be held for the student in these circumstances.
Forms for requesting a leave of absence are available on the Graduate Studies website: Graduate Studies Office. Students must have completed at least six units toward the degree or credential in residence at this university in order to qualify for leaves of absence. Leaves of absence must be submitted before the first day of classes.
A student enrolled at the university may enroll concurrently for additional courses at another CSU campus only with advance written approval and by filing a concurrent enrollment form with Office of the Registrar. Certain restrictions apply when a quarter-system campus is involved. Permission will not be granted when the study list in the proposed combined program exceeds units authorized for full-time study. Students may enroll concurrently at institutions outside the CSU system without special permission or forms.
The Center for Careers in Teaching (EC-379) is available to assist students who do not yet have a bachelor's degree and are planning to become teachers. For further information call (657) 278-7130, email askcct@ fullerton.edu or go to: http://ed.fullerton.edu/cct .
If you currently possess a bachelor's degree, you should attend a Credential Overview to learn more about each Teacher Education Credential Program. Overview schedules are available at http://ed.fullerton.edu/cct/events .
Enrollment via Open University at CSUF allows students currently in a non-admitted status to take CSUF courses from the regular university schedule of degree classes.
Individuals may request to enroll in courses at the undergraduate level (100-400 level) where they have read course descriptions and can acknowledge they meet the stated prerequisites or have completed the equivalent of those courses. Some academic departments may ask to see an unofficial transcript at the approval level.
Graduate-level courses (500 level) require additional consultation and approvals before an individual may start the Request for Approval permission process. Individuals consult directly with the graduate advisor/program before requesting to add this type of course. Individuals may not enroll into any 600-level doctoral courses through Open University.
Although students may request to add closed or waitlisted courses, students enrolling via OU are not eligible to be placed on the waitlist. Enrollment via Open University is on a space-available basis, after admitted students have had the opportunity to enroll.
A maximum of 24 units earned through Open University may count towards a bachelor's degree at CSUF. Credit earned through Open University may not be used to fulfill the residence requirements (30 semester units) for a bachelor's degree at CSUF. For graduate degrees at CSUF, normally 9 units may apply. Individuals should consult the graduate department advisor. Undergraduate students experiencing Academic Disqualification (ADQ) from CSUF may not enroll in more than six (6) units in Spring, Summer, or Fall terms and no more than three (3) units in a Winter term. Participation in Open University enrollment does not constitute admission to the university.
For more information, please review OU General Instructions and Fall Dates & Details. Reach out to Extension Student Services for questions about the process. Need Advising? Consult with one of the Open University Advisors with any questions prior to registering, or schedule an appointment if needed.
