All SAIT students — including those conditionally accepted — need to register for classes about 8 to 12 weeks before the term begins.
Please note, English Language Foundations and Apprentices follow a different registration process. For details, visit their dedicated website.

Logging In
Navigate to mySAIT and select ‘Current SAIT students and employees’ from the menu.
Enter your SAIT Student email address (your @edu.sait.ca email).
Enter the password you use to access your SAIT student email address. If you're logging in for the first time, search your personal inbox for the email subject line "Your SAIT student email address." Remember, you will need to change this after you log in for the first time.
Log into mySAIT and in the mySAIT tab select myStudent from the dropdown menu.
In the Personal Information, Academic Records & Schedules section, select “Search and Register for Classes”.
Choose Register for courses
Click Select a Term drop-down menu and choose the term in which your classes will occur.
The way you register depends on whether your individual program follows open or block registration rules. You can find which registration type your program falls under in Getting your Class Schedule page. Here are the steps for each registration type.
Open Registration Instructions
First semester students in open registration programs will start by selecting the Blocks tab and choosing your block of mandatory orientation and prep courses. Select the radio button next to your orientation block then click the “Submit” button on the bottom right. Review next steps for new students to learn more about these important Prep courses.
Once you have your mandatory block or if you are entering a semester after your first, select the Find Classes or Enter Course Reference Number (CRN) tab to search for your individual courses.
You can type in the course name in the keyword section, type in the course code in the course section, or enter the CRN number to search.

Search by Course Code:
Search by CRN Number:
Once the available course appears, click the add button to choose your class.
For some courses, there might be multiple sections to choose from. Click on the course name and then select Restrictions. You can only select the fields of study related to your program. Otherwise, a field of study restriction error will occur.
Repeat the last three steps until you have added all your required classes, making sure a green Registered icon appears next to each selection.
Once you have chosen all classes, select Account Summary and Pay NOW to apply the tuition and fees to your student profile.
Block Registration
Select the Blocks tab if your program follows block registration rules or if you're in your first semester of an open registration program.
Select the radio button next to your chosen Alternate block of classes. Make sure there is a green registered icon next to all classes in the block - you will need to speak with your academic advisor if any one or more classes in the block are showing as full.
Click submit after choosing your block of classes. This is needed even if there is only one block as this will complete and save your registration.
Some programs require you to select both a block and some individual courses. After you register, double check the course catalog to ensure you have all the required courses.
To complete the registration process, select Account Summary and Pay NOW to apply the tuition and fees to your student profile.
Your registration is acknowledgement that you will adhere to SAIT add/drop, withdrawal and refund deadlines and policies. Be sure to check important dates and deadlines. Students who withdraw after the start of the semester are not eligible for a full refund. No refund will be provided after the add/drop deadline.
