How to Register

Please note: The following instructions apply to both in-house and online courses.

First, please familiarize yourself with the Who Can Register information. (Special students [i.e., students not enrolled at Starr King or the GTU] may especially benefit by visiting the Online Education FAQ.)

Starr King registration periods are consistent with the Graduate Theological Union registration periods. See the academic calendar for important dates.

Please note: early registration is strongly recommended, as many classes have limited enrollment, thus spaces are filled until the limit is reached.

To access your course after registration is complete, see Logging In to an SKSM Online Course.

Students enrolled in a degree program at Starr King School (or any other Graduate Theological Union school) should follow the registration processes outlined by their school’s registrar.  Starr King’s processes are listed in the Starr King Student Handbook (password required to view).

Steps to Register for Special Students (students not in a SKSM or GTU degree program):

1. Determine if course requires a PIN to register. Many online courses have limited enrollment and require the instructor's approval and a PIN to register. Check the course description on the course listing page for notation "PIN Required".
2. If PIN is not required, skip to step 3. If PIN is required, submit a course PIN request online form, which will then be sent to the instructor. The PIN you receive from the instructor will be needed for step 3 below.
3. Fill out and submit a SKSM Course Registration online form.
4. Send your tuition payment:
   Mail a check, made out to Starr King School for the Ministry, to the address below:
