You will be notified for your registration date. You will have priority in registration which means your registration will be earlier than regular registration since you are a new student. But you will also have registration holds such as insurance and visa related holds. So you might not be able to register early after all. Not to worry about registration right now because you can always add classes even after school starts. The one thing you can take care of at this stage is to list your class schedule and alternative schedule in case the class is full or canceled. The school starts at January, so don't worry and hang tight. You will see messages in your MYSJSU portal for things you need to take care of.
Hi, for registration date, the alternative is to get to:

yet just for reference or you can ask bursar's office where you pay for your registration fees.
