New Student Registration
Fall 2025
You're registered for your Gustavus classes!
What an exciting time! Fall class schedules have been created for all students who submitted their Registration Preference form prior to June 20.*
*Students who complete the Registration Preference form after June 20 will receive their class schedule via email within 5 business days of submitting the form, beginning July 1. Check your Gustavus email at that time for instructions on how to access and review your class schedule.
Reviewing Your Schedule:
Most students received and reviewed their class schedule at our Gustie Gear-Up! event in June.
Students who didn't attend Gustie Gear-Up! received an email (sent to their Gustavus email) on June 25 with instructions on how to access and review their class schedule. That email included a link to schedule an optional virtual appointment in early July to review and adjust their schedule with a Gustavus advisor.
All students, whether they attended Gustie Gear-Up! or not, can review their schedule on the Student Planning menu of MyGustavus. Be sure to watch the 'Understanding Your Gustavus Class Schedule' video for helpful tips on how to review your schedule.
Schedule Adjustments:
While most incoming students will not need to adjust their schedule after Gustie Gear-Up!, there are times when it is appropriate to make a change.
Students who have already had their initial advising appointment (either at Gustie Gear-Up! or online) and would now like to speak with an advisor about a possible schedule adjustment can schedule an appointment using our appointment calendar.
Those appointments will take place online using Google Meet between mid-July and mid-August. After that, a student can wait to make an adjustment until they meet with their advisor during New Student Orientation.
JUST GETTING STARTED?
Did you recently decide to become a Gustie? Congratulations! The information below will help you submit your class registration preferences so that we can create your fall class schedule.
REGISTRATION PREFERENCES:
Deposited students should go to the Enrollment Checklist in their Applicant Portal to complete the Registration Preference form as soon as possible. We will use your answers on that form to create your initial class schedule.
REGISTRATION RESOURCES:
Here are a couple of great resources for a student to consult when completing the Registration Preference form in their Applicant Portal:
PLACEMENT EXAMS:
Many incoming Gustavus students need to take at least one placement exam prior to class registration. Check the Should I Take a Placement Exam? page to help you decide which exam(s) to take.
AP, IB, CONCURRENT ENROLLMENT & OTHER COLLEGE CREDIT:
Have you earned any college credit prior to coming to Gustavus? If so, be sure to request that your official college transcript(s) and/or AP or IB test scores are sent directly to Gustavus from the institution(s) that granted the credit. It is not enough to have these classes listed on your high school transcript. You must request for the official college transcript(s) and/or test scores to be sent directly to Gustavus.
Have transcripts sent to:
admission@gustavus.edu or mailed to:
Gustavus Admission Office
800 W. College Ave
Saint Peter, MN, 56082
Sending transcripts and scores as soon as possible upon completion will help us identify if/how your credits will transfer to Gustavus.
RECEIVING YOUR CLASS SCHEDULE:
If you submit your Registration Preference form after June 20, your class schedule will be made available to you within 5 business days, beginning July 1. We will send an email to your Gustavus email with instructions on how to access and review your class schedule. (See the top of this page for more information.)
NEW STUDENT ORIENTATION:
Your next step will be to move in and attend New Student Orientation this fall. Please contact the Campus Activities Office with any questions.
We look forward to welcoming you to Gustavus! Please visit the Get Ready Gusties page for more comprehensive information about the overall transition to Gustavus.
