SDSUid – this is your SDSU email account where ALL course information will be sent to during the semester. In addition, your SDSUid is the account you will use to access other important SDSU applications and software, such as Canvas, and Zoom. You should be receiving you unique SDSU email account closer to the start of the program.

Once your sdsu.edu email is up and running you are encouraged to utilize our program Homeroom on Canvas to receive updates and announcements. Again, this should happen in the next few months.

For our planning purposes, we would like to have you list your class preferences prior to arriving in San Diego. By submitting your class preferences, please note that we are NOT guaranteeing or enrolling you in any classes at this time. Class enrollment will occur during orientation, one week prior to the start of the semester, and more information will be given to you at that time.

Submit the Class Preference Form to help us understand the course demands and planning.
