Registration Guide for Launch Students

1. Begin at the ACP/Launch registration portal.

2. Select your home high school district and press “Continue.” Select your home district instead of "Launch Virtual School." Since you are using this ACP/Launch portal, your status as a Launch student is already known.

3. Sign in with a Google, Yahoo or high school email address. Students using a high school email address can follow the “Sign in with Google” link. 

Signing in with an email address ensures that students do not register multiple times and allows students to re-enter the registration site if necessary. When logging in, students must enter a unique email address that only they use. If two students from the same family are registering, they cannot log in with the same email address.

Students who have previously registered with the ACP must log in with the same email used previously. Likewise, students must use the same name used previously. For consistency, students should register using their full, legal name. If you do not remember what information you used originally, contact the ACP office at acp@umsl.edu.

4. Confirm your name and email, then press "Continue."

If another person has already logged into an account using your  computer, their account information may automatically fill in instead of your own. If this happens, try using a different browser or another device.

5. Enter the necessary profile information and press “Continue.”

Students applying for the first time will be prompted to confirm their information again. A profile will then be created for them. 

6. Students will be notified that their profile is complete. Proceed to the application.

7. Enter the required application information and press "Continue." Double-check that all contact information and address are correct so you do not miss important communications. 

8. Students will be notified that their application data is complete. Proceed to course selection.

9. Select your desired courses and press “Agree and Submit.”

10. After course selection, the student portion of the application is complete. See next steps.

11. Next Steps: The student's parent/guardian will receive an email with a link to approve the student's application for ACP courses. More information is available in the next section.

1. After the student completes their portion of the registration, parent/guardians will receive an email. Follow link in the email to confirm the student's enrollment.

2. Parents/guardians may approve or deny student enrollment by clicking either "I agree" or "I do not agree."

3. Parents/guardians will receive confirmation that their action was successful.

4. Final Steps: Once the parent/guardian approves, the Launch student's ACP application is considered complete. No outside action is required after this point.

The ACP office will confirm and send all complete applications to the UMSL Registrar, who will officially enroll the students.

Students will receive their billing information and UMSL account information in the weeks after registration closes.
