Registration and Advising

  • How do I get advised?
    • If you have more than 30 hours of college credit, you will be advised by your academic department. See the department of your major for information on academic advising. 
  • How do I register for classes? Once you have been advised, you can enroll in classes via LEONet. Step-by-step instructions on how to enroll are available here: LEONet-How Do I?
  • When is the last day to register classes for Spring? Open registration ends Thursday, January 11, at 5:00 pm.   
  • Schedule adjustment begins Saturday, January 13, at 9:00 am; students will be financially responsible for any classes remaining on their schedule as of 5:00 pm on Monday, January 15. 
  • The add/drop period begins Tuesday, January 16 and ends Wednesday, January 17. During this period, students may make schedule adjustments without receiving a "W" grade for each class dropped. However, students will not be able to drop the last class on their schedule. For information, contact registrar@southeastern.edu.

Completing Your Financial Aid

REMINDER: Classes will be canceled for students with outstanding charges on Thursday, January 11, 2024, at 5:00 pm (unless anticipated/pending Financial Aid covers the outstanding charges). Students are encouraged to check their LEONet account for any outstanding charges.

  • What is my financial aid status? You can check the status of your financial aid award by logging into your LEONet, then Self Service > Campus Finances > View Financial Aid. The current financial aid year is 2023-2024. 
  • Why is there no aid showing on my account? If there is no aid available under the financial aid year of 2023-2024, please make sure you completed the 2023-24 FAFSA on studentaid.gov and included Southeastern’s school code on it (002024). This will allow our school to receive the FAFSA and award federal aid eligibility. Please allow 3-5 business days after completing the FAFSA for our school to receive it.
  • When will my scholarships, grants, or loans show as pending aid? Any grants or scholarships will appear on your account as soon as they are offered. Student loans will not show as pending aid until they are accepted via your LEONet account. If you have additional questions or need more information, you may contact the Financial Aid Office at finaid@southeastern.edu or call 985-549-2244. 
  • How do I know if I need to submit financial aid documents? Check your "To Do List" on LEONet for details (located on the right side of the LEONet homepage).  Please submit all documents via email to fadocs@southeastern.edu .
  • Where do I submit forms for military benefits? Please direct all questions regarding military funding and benefits to the Office of Military and Veteran Success by emailing veterans@southeastern.edu or by calling 985-549-5041.
