Submit Roommate Questionnaire
Join the Olivet community on ZeeMee to connect with other incoming students, complete the Roommate Questionnaire and attend virtual live events! ZeeMee is a great place to find your friend group or roommate before Orientation!
In this form, freshmen will declare a major, sign the campus community covenant, select extracurricular involvements and list any completed college coursework. The Registrar’s Office will then create your first semester schedule.
Connect with Lauren to discuss your completed coursework, see how your courses transfer to ONU and plan your first semester schedule.
New Account Setup
As an Olivet student, you are assigned a personal student account which is used for logging into email.olivet.edu, campus wireless, canvas.olivet.edu, my.olivet.edu and many other Olivet resources. Once you have received your username from your Admissions Counselor, you can complete the New Account Setup to access your ONU email and MyOlivet account.
Set Up Your Olivet ID
Complete the Housing Application!
On the housing application, you will sign the ONU Campus Community Covenant, select your meal plan, create a roommate pin, choose Tiger Dollar amounts and more. This application must be completed prior to housing registration.
*This is not when you select your dorm room. That will happen at a later date. This is simply the first step in applying for housing. Be sure to select “Housing Application” in the portal.
Complete the Off-Campus Petition!
Commuter students are required to submit the Off-Campus Petition in order to be approved to live off campus. You will also sign the ONU Campus Community Covenant, select a commuter meal plan, choose Tiger Dollar amounts and more.
To complete the Off Campus Petition: Follow steps 1-4 of the Housing Application instructions. When you get to Step 5, instead of clicking “Launch Housing Gateway” click “Open Off campus Petition” and complete the form.
One of the most important parts of the enrollment process is finalizing your financial aid. The good news is that you don’t have to do it alone! Our financial aid advisors are here with you every step of the way. Visit our “Easy as 1, 2, 3” Financial Aid page for step-by-step instructions and how-to videos for finalizing your financial aid – and reach out to your Financial Aid Advisor if you have questions.
For the safety of the campus community, Olivet requires proof of immunization records. New students must register for a new account for medical records through www.medproctor.com using their Olivet credentials.
Coming Soon
All incoming students must submit final transcripts to ONU to confirm federal student aid eligibility. An official transcript must include all semesters of high school, and it must have the Graduation Date filled in with a date. The transcript must be sent directly from the high school to ONU to be considered official.
Students who have completed college courses, during their high school years or post-graduation, must also submit official college transcripts to receive credit for completed coursework. Unofficial transcripts may limit course eligibility and attendance at Olivet.
