Undergraduate transfer students
Admitted Students:
- Get Your Student ID Number
After you are admitted, you will receive a letter that includes your student ID and PIN number. Use this information to set up your My.Emich Account.
- Set Up Your My.Emich Account
Once you have your student ID and PIN number, you can set up your My.Emich account. My.Emich is the campus portal system that will allow you to register online, check your schedule, set up an e-mail account, find out about your financial aid and pay your bills.
- Get Academic Advising
All new undergraduate students are required to meet with an academic adviser before they are eligible to enroll in classes. During your advising appointment, your adviser will review your existing credits and explain how your credits will contribute toward the completion of your EMU degree.
They will also explain any additional steps you must take to have your transfer credit reviewed by any academic departments, in cases where the credit cannot be assigned by the Records Office.
Your adviser will also discuss the general education requirements of the university, any placement tests that you may need, and help you register for your first-semester classes.
Students who live out of state and are unable to attend an advising appointment on campus may call the Advising Office (734.487.2171) to schedule a phone advising appointment.
- Register for Classes
At your first advising appointment, your academic adviser will register you for your first semester classes. You will be able to adjust this schedule, and register for future semesters, using the online registration process.
- Get Your Eagle One ID Card
Your Eagle One card is your student identification card. It can also be activated as a debit card. To get your Eagle One card, take the printed copy of your schedule and a picture ID, such as a driver's license, to the Eagle One office, located in 120 Student Center (lower level behind the dining commons).
- Sign up for Housing
If you are interested in living in the residence halls, you must complete a housing contract and bring or mail the completed contract and the housing deposit to the cashier's office in 200 Pierce Hall, Ypsilanti, Michigan 48197.
- Get a Parking Permit
Students who are planning to live on campus and want to bring a car must purchase a Resident Parking Permit. If you are planning to commute, you can order your Commuter Parking Permit online or in person at the parking department on campus.
- Get Financial Aid
If you have completed the FAFSA and requested that your student aid report be sent to EMU, you will automatically be considered for financial aid.
