Enrolled Student Information

 

Now that I have enrolled, what’s next?  

 

Upon enrolling in classes, students are issued a user account that will permit them to access various campus computer services.

After you have received your Student ID number and verification of enrollment, you may "Find your username" on the University IT website (Click on Technology at the top of the main University website).

You can search for your username by your Student ID number and your last name.  When you find your username, you can "Activate" your account.

To activate your username you must have an external email address or mobile phone number on your student record.  An authorization code will be sent to the external contact information to verify your identity.  Once activated you may begin using the various online services available at The University of Tulsa.

For assistance, please contact the TU Law Computing Resouces Department at computing@mail.law.utulsa.edu.

STUDENT ID CARD

You may obtain your student ID card after you have enrolled. IDs are available the day following enrollment. You can come to the campus anytime (M-F) this summer to obtain your ID.  Please bring your schedule and a photo ID.

Your first Student ID is FREE but any future replacement IDs will cost $15.00.  Get your ID before August 1st to beat the rush.  The ID may be obtained at the Parking and Card Services Office, in William F. Fisher Hall (formally Twin West) on the TU campus (2821 East 8th Street).  Office hours are Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.  For more information call 918-631-3360 or 918-631-3361 (fax number is 918-631-3362).      

EMERGENCY TEXT MESSAGING SERVICE 

The University of Tulsa makes the e2Campus text messaging service available to better serve the safety needs of its students, faculty and staff.  After signing up for this service, you will receive urgent messages on your cell phone in the event of an emergency.  There is no TU fee for this service; however, you may pay a nominal fee to your cell phone carrier which is consistent with the fees required to receive any other text messages.  Receiving an emergency text message does not require any specific cell phone carrier, service or technology.

To sign up for this service, please log into your myTU account.  On the main page, under “Other TU Services”, you will find “Emergency Contact Registration.”  Clicking on this link will bring up a new window with information on how to enroll into this very important program.

TUITION PAYMENT

The Business Office usually applies tuition in bulk at interval times according to the date our law students enroll.  The statements are now sent to student’s WebAdvisor account and can be viewed on-line. An email notice will be sent to students’ TU email address when the statements are available for viewing. Therefore, if you haven’t already received an email notice from the TU business office, you should be receiving it soon. 

Tuition is due by the first day of class but the business office welcomes those who have enrolled and been billed to pay it sooner if they like.  Therefore, you may pay your tuition anytime between now and the first day of class.  McClure Hall is the business office.  It is number 20 on the campus map.  There are teller windows inside the building where you pay your tuition.  If you have questions, the main number for the business office is 918-631-2600. 

Payments may also be paid online at www.utulsa.edu/controller/busoffice click on “secure online payment form."

If you desire to pay your tuition in installments via a payment plan, go to www.utulsa.edu/controller/busoffice you will see a link to “e-cashier” which will provide you with the necessary details for a monthly payment plan.  Also, feel free to call the phone number above to inquire about this option. 

Current semester charges and TU’s payment policy can be found at http://www.utulsa.edu/courses/schedule/. Click on (current semester) Enrollment Information and scroll down to page 3 and 4.

MANDATORY HEALTH INSURANCE

The University requires that law students enrolled in 6 or more hours have adequate health insurance. The cost of this insurance will be automatically charged to the tuition account. If you have health insurance, you must submit a waiver to the Business Office within the first 2 weeks of the semester to have the charge reversed from the tuition account. Information about the coverage and the waiver can be found at http://www.utulsa.edu/controller/busoffice/ ...  click on “insurance."

IMMUNIZATION

Oklahoma Law requires that all new students who attend Oklahoma colleges and universities provide proof of immunization for certain diseases.  Failure to comply with this requirement could result in a Hold being placed on future enrollment.  Please click here for the Immunization Form you will need to complete as well as important immunization information.     

Please take the time to read the immunization information carefully as postponement of this requirement may result in unnecessary frustration for you once your fall schedule becomes full with studying.
