Registration
for an Online Course
Enrollment in an online course is a
two-step process. All online courses are offered through the
SUNY Learning Network (SLN).
FIRST, formally enroll in the course at
FIT. See
Registration and Payment.
SECOND, one week before the semester begins, go to
www3.fitnyc.edu/distancelearning for information on
accessing your course. You will be taking your course using
either SLN/ANGEL (the new online course system) or
SLN/Classic (the old online course system).
For SLN/ANGEL courses, go to
fitnyc.sln.suny.edu. Login with your FIT username and
password, go to
www3.fitnyc.edu/it/login.
For SLN/Classic courses, if this is your
first SLN/Classic course, go to
www.sln.suny.edu_studentlogin.htm. Click on Students
and then choose Create SLN account. This will test
your computer compatibility. Next, choose Yes, create
account, then SLN, then FIT. Complete the
form, making sure to choose the correct section, and select
Submit. Print out the confirmation screen.
If you are a returning
SLN/Classic student, click on Students and enter your
username and password. At the Commons, choose the
Select/Change Course Access link. In the opened form,
select FIT from the campus listing. Check off your
course(s), making sure to choose the correct section and
select Submit.
Online orientation information can be found
by visiting
www.fitnyc.edu/onlinecourses, and selecting the
department hompage link.
