Go to http://www.fanshawec.ca/webadvisor. Click on Log In (near the top) and enter your username and password (sent to you by mail in your admissions package). If you don't remember them, follow the prompts on the screen for your username. If you reset your password, it will be sent to the email we have on record for you.

Once you've completed your transaction, you'll get an email acknowledgement and the course will appear on your CE schedule. If you don't get an email acknowledgement, your registration has not gone through — try again!
Important Dates
Note! Fanshawe College programs each fall under one of three academic calendars — 15-week, 16-week, and 18-week semesters. Make sure you know where your program fits!
For most programs, the last date you can withdraw without having to pay all your fees for the Fall 2008 term (15-wk, 16-wk, or 18-wk semesters) — Sept. 15, Sept. 15, Sept. 15.
If you withdraw after September 15, all your fees will be due, even if you aren't going to any classes. Come to the Office of the Registrar (E1012) to be sure your paperwork is complete.
Sept.tember 15 is also — for most programs! — the last date to register in a program, change from full-time to part-time or back again, or drop or add courses for this term. Important note about part-time! Dropping some of your classes does not automatically make you part-time and you still must pay full fees. You have to withdraw from your program and register for each course separately. Talk to your academic office first!
For returning students, the last date to appeal a grade, an academic decision or your fees from Summer 2008 (15-wk semesters) — Sept. 24.
