If you are an international student, you must also submit an Intent to Enroll through Atlas. Details are in your admission letter from the Office of International Affairs.

Enrollment checklist

Approximately one week after you apply, you will be able to look up your University ID number. You’ll use this ID number to create your IU Indianapolis computing account, which you can do after your admission is finalized. Please note that your IU Indianapolis computing account is different than any guest computing account you created.

You will need your 10-digit university ID number for all university transactions. Please have this number available whenever you call a department or unit on campus as it will expedite requests. Your ten-digit University ID is needed for you to create a university account and obtain a network ID for email. Once you set up your account, there is a delay of about 20 minutes before you can register for classes. If you are unable to set up your account, please contact the UITS help desk.

Complete the Citizenship Verification. Indiana University is required by Indiana law to verify eligibility for in-state tuition and aid via a signed affidavit testifying to current citizenship status. This service provides a method to comply.  Required for domestic and international students.

Two-Step Login (Duo) is required for all students. This affects signing into Canvas, One.IU, SharePoint/MS Teams, and any other services protected by the Central Authentication System (CAS).

Visit twostep.iu.edu for step-by-step instructions. The Knowledge Management System (KMS) also has in-depth overviews.

Your academic advisor will assist you with registering for your classes based on your plan of study.  Your plan of study can be found in the Luddy Student Portal. Under Degree completion you will find a link for “Degree requirements.” Click on this and you will find all the degree requirements and plans of study.

You must have your IU account created to register. Check out the Academic Calendar to learn when registration opens, when classes begin and end, and dates of school breaks each semester.

When it is time to register, log into One.IU and go to your Enrollment Shopping Cart.

Immunization Compliance: Every student who will be physically present on an Indiana University campus must provide certain immunization information to the university. This provision's main objective is to enable the university to provide a safer and healthier environment for students.

Complete the pre-arrival checklist in Atlas.  If you have any questions about the checklist, contact the Office of International Affairs directly at iwelcome@iu.edu.

CrimsonCard is available for on-campus and online students.

Academic advising

Each graduate student is assigned an academic advisor who will reach out to you within one week of accepting your offer of admission. Your advisor will guide you through course registration, connect you to valuable resources, and provide support throughout your academic journey at Luddy.

It is used for things like gaining access to buildings, checking out library books, and printing on campus. You can also use your CrimsonCard to make purchases both on and off campus. Many local area restaurants provide discounts when you show your CrimsonCard or use it for payment.  Obtain your CrimsonCard in person at the Campus Center or via mail.
