Fall Transfer Student Guide

CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR

ADMISSION TO EASTERN!

Dare to be extraordinary at Eastern Connecticut State University. It's a place where a love of learning is palpable-and the drive to make a difference is even more so. You are officially on your way to becoming a Warrior! This guide will help ensure that you are fully prepared for the start of the fall 2020 semester and an excellent year. All you have to do is follow these steps:

 

  • File the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) as soon as possible to qualify for grants and other funding. Eastern’s priority deadline is June 1, 2020. For more information, visit www.easternct.edu/finaid/ or call (860) 465-5205.

  • Your Office 365 e-mail account is the primary source of communication between you and Eastern. Prior to arriving to campus, you will receive emails to inform you about placement testing, housing, financial aid, and registration. Your account credentials are also used to access eWeb to view your transfer credit evaluation, submit your deposits, register for classes, view your financial aid, and more. Please click here for instructions to activate your Office 365 account; please refer to your acceptance letter for your Eastern ID, username, and email address.

  • Once your official transcripts have been reviewed, the evaluation will be posted on eWeb Online Services. You may access this by logging into your Office 365 account, and clicking the icon titled “SelfService (eWeb)”.

  • For more information about Advising Center services, please visit: www.easternct.edu/advising/new-transfer.html. If you have any questions, call the Advising Center at (860) 465-4526.

    Please note: Students may pay their tuition deposit before registering for classes. Transfer and Re-Admitted students will be able to register with current Eastern students in their designated class (determined by number of completed credits).
