The General Bulletin
The Florida State University General Bulletin contains the University's policies, procedures, admission requirements, colleges, departments, programs of study, course-search options, and more. Each new version of the General Bulletin is published in August each year. The General Bulletin is available in PDF and web formats on the General Bulletin website. The PDF version is easily searchable and allows the reader to print any or all pages of the document.
This spreadsheet of all course listings, which serves as a snapshot-in-time of all curriculum at the beginning of the Fall 2026 term, is sortable. To obtain a list of classes for a specific area or department, download the file and simply click the drop-down arrows on the column headers and sort as required.
Note: For the 2026-2027 Florida State University General Bulletin, every effort was made to meet updated ADA compliance guidelines. While a review of hyperlinks, headings, etc., is ongoing, we look forward to offering a fully compliant revision by the April 2027 deadline. Should any reader encounter an issue with a specific section, please email AR-RegPub@fsu.edu, and we will prioritize updating the content in question.
