Student Information System

As a student of SFU, you will use the Student Information System. This is a self-service system enabling students to access and update personal information, check your grades, find course schedules and outlines and enroll in your courses. In order to access SIMS, and also to access personal information through the SFU website, students must have an active Computing ID.

SFU Computing IDs are for SFU continuing students. Therefore, you need to be admitted to SFU and accept the offer of admission by paying the admission confirmation deposit first.

Class Search

Use the Search for Classes function on the Student Information System to check for the most up-to-date schedule information:

1. Verify "Simon Fraser University" is selected as Institution, and that the term you're looking for is selected
2. Click on Search for Classes.
3. To Search for all courses available at the Surrey campus, click on Additional Search Criteria and Select Surrey Campus from the drop down campus menu.
