Welcome to IU Bloomington! We're looking forward to helping you have a great first semester. Follow these steps to get started!
And don't forget to declare your intent to enroll so you can be invited to New Student Orientation and register for classes.
To create your computing account, you’ll need your University ID number, which was included in your letter of admission.
You must set up your computing account to:
The computing account and email account are different than the account you created to apply. If you already created your IU computing account to check your application status, you still need to set up your IU email account.
If you did not set up your computing account to check your admission status, you can also use the steps below to take care of this task. If you already have a computing account, you can follow the prompts to create your IU email account.
Please note that if you have ever previously been enrolled in or participated in a program at any IU campus and were given a 10-digit University ID number and username, you will use the same ID number and username to access your IU computing account (or use the steps above to set up your computing account if you have not already done so).
Declare your intent to enroll so we know you'll be attending IU.
If you are beginning your studies in fall 2020, you must indicate your intent to enroll by July 15, 2020.
In order to declare your intent to enroll, you must first set up your IU computing account. It will take up to 24 hours for your account to be activated.
All new students are required to attend orientation, which is where you will register for your first semester classes. Starting in mid-March, the Office of First Year Experience Programs (FYE) will begin sending out invitations to New Student Orientation (NSO) to students who have declared their intent to enroll for the fall semester. Students who have been admitted to IU for the spring semester will receive an invitation in November.
Make your reservation as soon as you receive your official invitation!

Gain access to a number of online IU Health Center services.
Once you set up your MyHealth Portal, you can also complete your required Health History Questionnaire, which will save you about 15 minutes of paperwork at your first IU Health Center visit.
New students are required to be immunization compliant prior to attending classes. All first-year students must provide dates of immunization and documentation for the following:
Religious exemptions, contraindication, or proof of disease history are accepted.
Let us know if you need special accommodations to help you perform at your best. Register with the Office of Disability Services for Students (DSS) as soon as you've been accepted at IU Bloomington.
Whether your condition is physical, medical, learning related, psychiatric, or a temporary disability, DSS will help you achieve your academic goals. Note that services do not automatically transfer from your previous school; you must apply for services at IU. Approval for accommodations on placement tests does not automatically qualify you for services during the academic year.
Contact DSS at your earliest convenience. They'll meet with you during New Student Orientation to ensure that services will be in place when the academic year starts.
If your plans change, you can defer your acceptance for one semester.
Here are our policies for deferring your acceptance:
To defer, fill out the online deferral form for domestic freshman and transfer students at least two weeks before the start of the term for which you originally applied.
If you'd like to cancel your application, you can do that on the Intent to Enroll page.
