Please check the status of your application to Simon Fraser University
by logging into the personal account that's been created for you in our
student information system at https://go.sfu.ca. Or enter your account from SFU's home page, www.sfu.ca,
by clicking on the sign-in link at the top, and then click on the student information system link here.
Now you're ready to enter your 9-digit student number and password that was emailed to when you applied to SFU.
Okay, we've landed on the Student Centre home page. To check your application status,
scroll down to the admissions section. You'll see the "My Application" status box
and five different symbols above it. The first symbol is a yellow triangle.
This symbol means that there are still some items that SFU requires for your application to be complete.
If this applies to you, check your "To Do List" up here, you'll see a yellow triangle
listed beside any outstanding items. Please submit these items
as quickly as possible or at any time, click on the Application Status
link in the Admission section. There's a link here to your To Do list as well.
When you're finished viewing your to do list, click on this link, and select Student Centre
to go back to the main page of your account. Let's scroll back to the Admissions section
and continue with the review of the symbols. The next symbol you may see is a green circle.
This means that SFU has received all of the necessary documents to process your application.
We know that this student has applied to two programs and that her documents are
complete, because green circles appear here for each program.
Generally speaking, after your application is complete it'll take SFU Admissions Department
approximately 3 to 4 weeks to evaluate the application. So keep checking back to this account.
The third symbol that you may see is a green check mark.
This means that you've received an offer of admission from SFU. If so, congratulations!
If you've received an offer of admission, please view the next tutorial, "How to accept the offer and pay the admission deposit."
The fourth symbol is a blue box. This will only appear under "My Application"
after you've been admitted to SFU, and after you've paid the admission deposit.
Because the next step is to enroll online, a specific date will be issued to you
by the University for you to enroll anytime thereafter. The last symbol you may see under
Application Status is a red X. It means that the application is either incomplete or denied,
and admission to the University is not possible at this time. Please contact an Admissions advisor
if you require more information. Contact information is available at the end of this video.
And now you know how to check your application status by checking your student account .
Your account will help you keep track of things you need to do before and after being admitted to SFU.
