Freshman students

We require all fall freshmen to officially accept their offer of admission by paying a $100 enrollment deposit or requesting an enrollment deposit waiver.

Transfer students

All transfer and second-degree degree students can accept their offer by completing the intent to enroll form. 

If you did not set up your computing account to check your admission status, you can also use the steps below to take care of this task. If you already have a computing account, you can follow the prompts to create your IU email account.

1. Search for and select “Create My First IU Account” in One.IU.
2. Read the Guidelines for Appropriate Usage, which are rules and policies for IT account use at IU, and agree to these policies.
3. Enroll in the Passphrase Self-Service Reset System. If you forget your passphrase, this tool will enable you to reset it yourself without having to visit a UITS Support Center walk-in location in person.
4. You will want to save or record your account information in a secure place. You will need this information each time you log in to your IU computing account.
5. Exit. It may take up to two hours before you can log in to some services.

What to do if you have forgotten your ID or other information

• Forgot your 10-digit University ID number? Use the Student Self-Service University Lookup Form to access your University ID.
• Forgot your username? Contact the UITS Support Center.
• Forgot your passphrase? Reset it here.

Please note that if you have ever previously been enrolled in or participated in a program at any IU campus and were given a 10-digit University ID number and username, you will use the same ID number and username to access your IU computing account (or use the steps above to set up your computing account if you have not already done so).

As an IU Fort Wayne student, you'll have the same access to campus facilities, housing, services and activitiesas Purdue Fort Wayne students. In order to take advantage of these offerings, you must create a goPFW account. 

1. Visit Purdue Fort Wayne's Account Activation webpage
2. To activate your account, you will need to know your birthdate and last four digits of your social security number
3. Once you make your goPFW account, save your Purdue Fort Wayne ID number. 
4. You can find your Purdue Fort Wayne student ID number on the right side of the page when you login to your goPFW account. 

Writing guided self-placement exam

If you have not taken ENGL 13100 as dual credit, AP, or at another institution, you will need to take your writing self-guided placement test which can be accessed through your goPFW account in the Enrollment tab. 

Placement scores take 24 hours to load, then you can enroll in ENGL 13100 if placed into it. 

Math placement exam

The math placement test can be taken and completed online by logging into Brightspace and then clicking on the tab “PFW No End Date Non-Credit.”

You should allow at least one hour for the math placement test. Calculators, TI84CE or below, are allowed, and you will need a pencil and scratch paper.

The math placement test may be retaken once. On a retest, the scores will either be the same, higher, or lower. The highest score will be used.

Prior to attending New Student Orientation, please complete the Advising and Registration Canvas course. During this course, you will learn how to get your campus ID cards, explore campus resources available to you and prepare you for your first semester at IU Fort Wayne.
