Activate your ULID username and create a password.

Your ULID is the gateway to all campus digital resources. It can be found on your admission letter. Once activated, you’ll use your ULID to access your University email, Moodle, ULink, and to register for classes.

Update or submit Proof of Immunization Compliance.

All students must complete and submit an immunization form confirming you meet the immunization requirements for Â鶹ҹÊÐ. You can't register for classes until you submit your completed immunization form. For international students, an I-20 cannot be issued until this step has been completed.

Be advised by your graduate coordinator or advisor.

Your admission letter identifies your graduate coordinator or advisor, who you will need to email to set up your advising appointment. If you are an MBA student, your advisor will reach out to you. If you are an online student, read more about online advising here. You must be advised before you can register for classes.
