Register for Classes

We encourage continuing students to register via the web as early as possible for the best course selections. Students enrolled in a degree or certificate program must meet with their advisor first (obtain your advisor PIN) before registering.
Begin the online registration process with College Scheduler.

If you have previously taken courses at SUNY Schenectady and know account name and password, you can log in to start registration.
If you do not know your account name and password, give us a call  at 518-381-1348 for assistance.
If the course for which you wish to register has a prerequisite which you meet but not with an SUNY Schenectady course, please register in person and bring proof of meeting the prerequisite course(s).

To enroll, please call 518-381-1366 or stop by the Admissions Office in the Welcome Center on the main campus or e-mail admissions@sunysccc.edu or apply here. Once you are admitted, you will receive information about advisement and registration.

If you are visiting SUNY Schenectady from another college and wish to register for a class, please contact the Registrar's Office to complete and submit a registration form. If the course for which you wish to register has a prerequisite which you meet but not with an SUNY Schenectady course, please bring proof of meeting the prerequisite course(s). New visiting students may begin registering when General Registration begins. If you have any questions or concerns please contact the Registrar's Office at 518-381-1348 or registrar@sunysccc.edu.

If you have previously taken courses at SUNY Schenectady enrolled in a major, but have not been registered for more than a year (three or more semesters absent including summer), please contact the Academic Advisement office to reactivate your status. The Advisement Office can be reached at 518-381-1277 or AcademicAdvisement@sunysccc.edu. Their office is located in Stockade Building, Room 100.

Auditing a course is offered on a space available basis in most courses. Online courses are available for audit only with the permission of the instructor. Students wishing to audit a course may come during the late registration period as indicated on the current Academic Calendar. Auditors pay full tuition and fees.

State and County residents 60 years or older may register as a Senior Audit without a fee or tuition, only during the late registration period as indicated on the Academic Calendar, on a space available basis. Online courses are not available for Senior Audit. For more information regarding auditing, please contact the Registrar’s Office.
