We recommended keeping this tab/window open while you work through these instructions.

1. Log In to MyMSU

• Start by visiting the MyMSU login page.
• Enter your NetID in the username box and your password in the password box.
  • Haven't set up your NetID and password yet? Learn how to set up your MyMSU account credentials.
• Click "Log In." You should now have access to your MyMSU dashboard. 
• If you are having problems with your NetID or general login issues, please contact our University IT services at (406) 994-1777.

2. View your Admissions Checklist.

• Find and click on your Admissions Checklist card, which should be pinned to your MyMSU Home page. (If you do not see your Admissions Checklist, click View All Cards to find your Admissions Checklist. We recommend saving your Admissions Checklist to your Home page.)
• Click on the Admissions Checklist in MyMSU.
• Scroll down to the Orientation/Class Registration section of the checklist.

3. Register for Orientation/Class Registration.

• If Orientation registration is open for your enrollment term, the form will be linked in the first row, right column of the Orientation/Class Registration item.
• Fill out the Orientation registration form and complete your Orientation registration payment. 

4. Bookmark your confirmation page.

• Once you have successfully registered for Orientation, you will be redirected to your Orientation confirmation page. This page contains comprehensive information about your Orientation program and how to log into your online Orientation. We recommend bookmarking this page for reference.
• Please note: It takes up to two business days for our team to receive and process your Orientation registration. After two days, your "Orientation" check box in your checklist will be updated to reflect that you are registered and, if it's after the date the online Orientation opens, you'll receive access to your online Orientation modules.

Thanks for registering for Orientation! We can't wait to see you at MSU.
