New StFX Students: Getting Ready

Set up your StFX account

Your StFX account is your key for accessing important campus services, including course registration, campus WiFi, and printing services. It also serves as your main form of communication between faculty and staff during your time at StFX. Make sure to check your StFX email regularly to avoid missing important information! 

Upload a photo for your StFX ID Card

Your student ID card is your access to most things at StFX, including your residence if you live on campus. We can have your ID printed and ready for you when you arrive, making your check-in much simpler and quicker. You will receive a separate email with your unique link to upload a photo for your ID. Please check your STFX email for an email from Transact Online Photo Submissions.

When are you arriving?

First, we need to know when you are expecting to arrive on campus. We will have staff to greet you and help you get checked-in when you arrive if you let us know when to expect you. Please click this form to share your arrival date and time with us: January Arrival Information Form.

Register for your classes

If after the reading the specific registration site below, you are unsure as to what courses you need to enroll in, you are advised to set up an appointment with an Academic Advisor by following the instructions here.
