Admitted Students - Next Steps

ad•mit•ted stu•dent: applied, been accepted, and can’t wait to attend Utah State

1

Create Your USU Password

Your USU password requires you to know your A-Number and is used to log into most USU systems.

 
2

Submit Your FAFSA (optional)

This allows USU to offer you the maximum amount of federal, state, and institutional aid to help pay for school. Completing the FAFSA usually takes less than an hour and can pay big dividends. See Financial Support.

 
3

Apply for Additional Scholarships (optional)

You are already considered for academic scholarships if you applied by the deadline, but many nonacademic awards and additional scholarships require a separate application and will have different deadlines.

Scholarship Acceptance Deadlines:

  • Summer/Fall Semester: May 1
  • Spring Semester: December 1
 

Confirm your enrollment to complete the following steps.

5

Sign a Contract for On-Campus Housing (optional)

Complete the housing application and pay housing deposit to secure your spot for on-campus housing.

 
6

Begin Orientation Online

The five-module orientation is completed over the course of several months, giving you information at the time you need it. Orientation for students starting summer or fall opens in mid-February.

 
7

Register for Classes

Orientation will tell you everything you need to select classes, speak with your academic advisor, and register on time. Once you register for class, a new USU email account will be created for you, and all official communication will be sent to that account during your time at USU.
