Admission

The first step for prospective DE students is to Apply for Admission. Please refer to How to be Admitted to determine your faculty/program choice.

Once you have submitted your application and supporting documentation to the Admissions Office, you will be notified of their decision by mail. Your official notice of admission, a Certificate of Acceptance, contains your student number, which is your permanent number necessary for registration and other functions at the university.

Registration

Once you have received your Certificate of Acceptance, you are eligible for course registration. Aurora Student is the starting place for: searching the course catalogue and the class schedule; registration activity; entering the secure area for changing your address, accessing your tuition fee statement, and obtaining your book lists.

Accessing your course

You will need to claim a UMNetID (university identification number) to access your course. When your password is displayed, please record it as you cannot retrieve it again.

Starting your course

You are now ready to access your course.  On the course homepage, a “Welcome” link provides DE contact information. Use the tabs along the top of the page to navigate through your course site.
