New Students: Getting Started

SFU computing IDs are for SFU continuing students. Therefore, you need to be admitted to SFU and accept the offer of admission by paying the admission confirmation deposit first.

New Students: Computing ID And Computer Access

Once new graduate students pay the $250 Admission deposit, they will receive an email informing that their SFU Computing account is available. You can then activate your computing ID via the mySFU Account Activation service. If you have not received this e-mail, please call the SIMS help line at 778.782.3230.

 

How to activate your account:

  1. Go to https://my.sfu.ca/cgi-bin/WebObjects/mySFU.woa/wa/AccountActivation
  2. Select "First time Activation"
    (If you are a returning student, please select "Returning student".)
  3. Read the Terms of Use and click "I Agree".
  4. Enter your 9-digit student number and your birth year/month/date. Click "Submit".
  5. Create your own password

If you have a problem activating your computing ID, call the Academic Computing Services (ACS) 24 hour help line at 778.782.3230 or e-mail help@sfu.ca.

 

If you need further assistance, SFU's IT Services site provides basic information about SFU's computing facilities.

 

Additional assistance is available through the Centre for Educational Technology (CET) located in the Education Building, room 8501.

Summer 2010 registration via goSFU begins Monday, March 15, 2010. If you have trouble registering, you may contact the SIMS (goSFU) Help Line by calling 778.782.3230 or e-mailing gosfu@sfu.ca.

 

EdD students self-register each semester (three times per year) with the exception of the following courses:

Simon Fraser University is on a trimester system. Therefore students register three times/year. Graduate students must register every semester from admission until all requirements for the degree have been fulfilled. This includes students who register On Leave. A student who does not register is considered to have withdrawn from the University (Graduate Regulation 1.4.3, Simon Fraser University Calendar).

Current Fees and Account Balance

You can check your current fee balance via GoSFU.

Universal Transit Pass

The UPass office regulates and has authority over all transactions related to this program. Please note: if you apply for exemption from the UPass (i.e. you live outside the GVRD), fees are first applied to your account and later reversed. Students who wish to apply for an exemption must fill out the exemption form and request a verification letter from the Graduate Programs Office (Surrey). Visit the website for detailed information and the exemption form. Deadlines apply for exemption requests (please see the UPass website).

Graduate Student Health Care Plan (GSS)

The Graduate Student Society (GSS) provides graduate students with a student health plan. The cost is approximately $116 per semester for both Dental and Medical and will automatically be added to your student fee assessment. These fees must be paid at the same time as your tuition. If you already have suitable coverage, you can apply for exemption (opt-outs are valid for one year). Visit the Graduate Beneift Plan web site for detailed information. Deadlines apply for opting out of the benefits plan.

New Students: Library/ID Cards

Available from the Student and Registrar Services front counter at the campus where you will be attending clases. Please visit the appropriate campus web site for details. (i.e. If you are a new student taking your program at SFU Surrey, you must get your Library/ID/Access card at Surrey because it also provides card access to the campus. This also applies to the Vancouver Campus. You will not be able to get this access card at Burnaby.)
