Complete the following steps to register for the Online Orientation:
Step 1: Activate your NetDirect Account
You will need your eight-digit Tech ID number (located in the upper right hand corner of your acceptance letter) and your Personal Identification Number (PIN).
NetDirect is your personal access point to Metropolitan State University's tools, resources and support services. Activating your account will:
- Create your NetDirect portal login
- Create your University email account which allows you to receive official University communications
Step 2: Complete the Diagnostic Assessments
If you are required to complete a diagnostic assessment, it will be indicated in your initial letter of acceptance to the University.
If you are unable to come to campus, you may make arrangements for completing the diagnostic assessments at a proctored site. If you are required to complete assessments, you must do so before you can proceed with orientation or register.
Step 3: Choose your New Student Orientation option
Option 1: Online Orientation
Choosing to complete the New Student Orientation online will allow you to start or stop at any time and to move at your own pace. Upon completion, you may request an in-person or phone appointment with your assigned academic advisor for registration assistance.
