Austin Peay State University Guide
This step-by-step guide walks through how to find your advisor, make contact, and complete class registration using the included screenshots for each part of the process.
Go to the Austin Peay State University homepage (www.apsu.edu) in your web browser to begin the advising and registration process. Click the magnifying glass (🔍) in the top right corner and search "OneStop". Click the top link within the first search result, then "Click here to login".
Click the student login area and enter your APSU username and password to access your student tools.
After logging in, navigate to the section that shows your academic information (AP Navigate Student), advising details, or registration tools.
Find the page that lists your assigned advisor. This may include the advisor's name, department, email address, or office location.
Save the advisor's email address, phone number, or office information so you can use it for communication or scheduling.
Go to your APSU student email account so you can send a professional message to your advisor.
Click the button to compose a new message. Address it to your advisor using the email you found in the portal.
Type a subject such as "Advising Appointment Request" or "Help with Fall Registration" so your advisor knows why you are contacting them.
Include your full name, student ID, major, and a short message explaining that you want help choosing classes or registering.
Politely request a meeting and give a few times when you are available. If the advisor uses appointment scheduling software, ask for the scheduling link if needed.
Send your message and watch your inbox for a reply from your advisor with instructions, questions, or an appointment confirmation.
Meet with your advisor in person, by phone, or online. Discuss required classes, electives, holds, and the courses you should take next.
After advising, go back to the student portal and open the registration section to begin selecting courses.
Look for any alerts or holds that could stop you from registering. Resolve them before trying to add classes. When you are registering for classes, the registration site will let you know if any holds are on your account.
Use the course search tool to find the classes your advisor recommended. Search by subject, course number, or term.
Review available sections and choose the times, instructors, and course formats that fit your schedule.
Click the button to add or register for each course section you want. Repeat this for every class on your plan.
Look over your selected classes carefully to make sure the days, times, and course names match what your advisor recommended.
Click the final submit or register button to officially enroll in your classes for the semester.
Check for a success message and review your final schedule. Save or screenshot the confirmation for your records.
