The New Student Orientation process contains four modules* (see descriptions below). To deliver the correct information at exactly the right time, module one for the Spring 2025 semester opens October 14, 2025. Modules two, three, and four will help you register for classes, prepare to begin at USU, and give you final reminders before you arrive on campus. The fifth module will give you information that is relevant once you have started your first semester.
Incoming Undergraduate International Students can register for the Spring 2025 semester on November 11-14, based on earned credit hours on your Utah State transcript. If you have questions about registration, remember module two will tell you everything you need to know and do prior to registration. After you complete module two, you will be able to register for classes.
If you are still unsure if you are attending Utah State University, we recommend that you begin New Student Orientation, and register for classes as if you are attending.
If you have questions about these modules, please email the orientation team at orientation@usu.edu. If you have questions regarding your student status, pelase contact the Office of Global Engagement at global.engagement@usu.edu. We are happy to help you in any way that we can.
