Hello and welcome to FVSU!
It is possible that you may enroll in a class that uses online course materials, such as the syllabus, calendar, quizzes, or supplementary reading and visuals. Or, especially if you are a non-traditional student (someone who cannot always come to campus due to job or family responsibilities or different needs), you may take a class that is fully online or meets on campus once a week.
If you have been admitted and have paid your fees, you may enter into your online courses on first day of class. Here is how to log in:
-
The GeorgiaView user name is the same as your FVSU email ID before the “@” sign. For example, jsmith1@student.fvsu.edu, would be jsmith1 for the GeorgiaView user name.
-
Your password is the same as your PIN Number for accessing Banner Web.
-
If you do not have your FVSU Student Email account, you can retrieve it from Banner Web under the Personal Information Link. If you do not have your Banner Pin, then you can retrieve it also from Banner Web (forgot password).
-
Once you have retrieved your user ID and password, you can go to https://fvsu.view.usg.edu to log in to your FVSU Online GeorgiaView courses.
