Admitted Students

Your UD email account is a Gmail account administered by the University. We recommend you sign into this account on your phone to receive notifications of new messages. Many campus partners, including your holistic academic advisor, will communicate with you through your UD email address.

We look forward to welcoming all students starting in spring semester to campus for required new student orientation on Friday, Jan. 9, 2026. During orientation, you'll be introduced to the campus and learn about resources, Marianist traditions, tips to help you be successful and more.

First, please take a few minutes to complete the Pre-Advising Form on your Porches To-do list. On this form you’ll provide details about any previously earned college credits, as well as your interests and goals to help your holistic academic advisor get to know you.

After completing the Pre-Advising Form, reach out to your academic advisor to schedule your courses. We encourage you to complete this as soon as possible to have more availability in course options.

All incoming students, including commuters, must complete the housing contract on Porches.

As part of the housing contract, you'll also select a meal plan, if applicable.

• First year students living on campus can choose between our standard and flexible meal plans.
• Commuter students can add a neighborhood plan or add Flyer Express dollars to their account for quick and convenient access to food options on campus.

All incoming students must provide health requirements information, including immunization records and a tuberculosis (TB) screening questionnaire. This information can be uploaded and entered through the student portal at myhealth.udayton.edu. The deadline to provide health requirements information is Jan. 2, or one week after you confirm enrollment.

Provide UD with your parent/guardian's contact information so they can receive the weekly Family News Digest and other important communications.

Review your financial aid offer and accept or decline student loans on Porches.

Upload your photo in Porches for your digital FlyerCard. This will be your official UD student identification card that you can access through the Get Mobile App in January.

If you are eligible to park on campus, you will need to purchase a parking pass for the current school year.

If you're currently taking classes at another school, have the institution submit a copy of your official transcripts to transcripts@udayton.edu.

All incoming residential students should plan to move in Thursday, Jan. 8.

• Residential service desks are staffed 24 hours. Watch for an email from Housing and Residence Life with additional information about move-in and where to pick up your keys.
• View our housing website for information about what to bring, your mailing address, where to send/receive packages and more.
