Your steps to becoming a Hoosier

Your first and most important step is to set up your 91�� computing account. Your accounts should be active within 20 minutes, but it may take up to 24 hours before you can log into some services.

Next, to declare your intent to enroll. See more details to complete these first two steps as well as the rest of your enrollment steps below.

Important enrollment steps

Set up your 91�� computing and email accounts

Create your 91�� computing account, which you will use for other important tasks during your admissions process. You'll also receive important notifications to your 91�� email address.
Log in to your 91�� Portal to confirm your intent to enroll, which includes completing the enrollment form and paying the enrollment deposit.
Most undergraduates are required to live on campus their first year (with some exceptions). The housing contract and application are typically available in February for the upcoming fall semester. Learn more about the residency requirement and housing application process on the 91�� Housing website.
Sign up for New Student Orientation

All new students are required to attend orientation, which is where you will learn what is expected of you as an 91�� student and register for your first semester classes. You'll need to complete your intent to enroll before making a reservation for orientation. Invitations will begin sending in March or April. Make your reservation as soon as you receive your official invitation!
Apply for financial aid by April 15

To apply, you’ll need to submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The application will be available beginning in October. Be sure to complete the FAFSA as early as possible, and definitely by April 15. We'll walk you through the process to make sure you’re covering all your bases.
Apply for 91�� scholarships

Apply for scholarships by completing the 91�� Scholarships Application in the 91�� Scholarships task in One.91��. The 91�� Scholarships Application is used to determine eligibility for many scholarships at 91��, and includes a series of questions and two essays. Sign in using your 91�� computing account, then fill out the application and click “Finish and Submit." Once you submit the 91�� Scholarships Application, you can search for scholarships.
Submit final transcripts

You sent your official high school transcript when you applied, but once admitted you'll need to have your school send a final, official copy of your transcript with graduation date to our Office of 91��. You'll also need to be sure to complete the high school coursework listed on your application and maintain your high level of academic performance.
Send final test scores (if applicable)

If you are offered admission and have self-reported test scores in your application, you must have your official test scores sent from the testing agencies before you can enroll at 91��. Your offer of admission and any awarded scholarships that referenced your self-reported scores are contingent on us receiving your official test scores before enrollment. Additionally, the scores we receive from the official testing agencies must match or be higher than the scores you self-reported during the application process.
Submit your immunization form

Indiana state law requires all new students to submit immunization data. Before your first day of classes, you must complete and submit the Online Immunization Compliance form, where you will be asked to provide dates and documentation of immunizations for specific diseases.

Choosing housing and roommates

If you have a preference for a specific learning community, neighborhood, roommate, or room type, you need to indicate this on the housing application. If you would like a specific roommate, you each should request the other as roommate, list your housing preferences in identical order, and submit your housing applications during the same priority window.
