Completing Registration
Completing Registration is LSU's process for confirming your enrollment each semester. Even if you've already scheduled classes, you must complete all registration requirements before the deadline to secure your schedule and maintain your enrollment status.
Completing Registration helps ensure your enrollment, financial obligations, and university records are up to date before the semester begins. We encourage students to begin the process early, as some requirements may take several business days to complete.
Use the resources below to review payment information, important dates, financial aid resources, and Workday Student processes.

Follow the four steps below to confirm your enrollment, satisfy university requirements, and prepare for the start of the semester. Select each section to learn more about the process and important next steps.
Registration holds are items on your LSU account that require action before you can complete registration. Holds may be related to required documents, university policies, health requirements, or other enrollment processes.
The good news is that most holds can be resolved on your own. We encourage you to review your account early, as some holds may take several business days to process after you've completed the required steps.

Confirming your attendance lets LSU know that you plan to attend for the upcoming semester. This step helps prepare for your arrival and ensures your enrollment status is accurately reflected in records.
Students will receive a notification in Workday Student when it is time to confirm their attendance.
To complete this step:
- Log in to Workday Student
- Open the attendance verification notification
- Complete and submit the attendance verification form
Students who do not plan to attend LSU for the upcoming semester should indicate that choice on the form.
Before completing registration, students must acknowledge LSU's Financial Responsibility Statement. This statement outlines your financial obligations as a student, including your responsibility for tuition, fees, and other university charges.
To complete this step:
- Log in to Workday Student
- Locate the Financial Responsibility task in My Tasks
- Review the statement
- Submit your acknowledgment
The final step in completing registration is reviewing your charge assessment (fee bill) and finalizing your payment arrangements for the semester.
Before completing registration, all prior-term balances must be paid in full. Students may not carry a past-due balance from a previous semester forward.
Current semester balances must be paid in full, covered by anticipated financial aid, scholarships, grants, or loans, or included in an Installment Plan.
To complete this step:
- Ensure any prior balances from previous semester are paid off. Note: Financial Aid for the new academic year cannot be applied to a prior academic year's balance.
- Review your charge assessment (once available) in Workday Student
- Confirm that all anticipated financial aid has been applied
- Pay any remaining balance for the upcoming term or enroll in an Installment Plan through the LSU Bursar's Office
Visit the LSU Bursar's website for information about payment options, installment plans, and important deadlines.
