Transfer Checklist

STEPS TO COMPLETE AFTER YOU HAVE BEEN ACCEPTED

  • Complete your Enrollment Confirmation form. This will let us know your plans for the upcoming semester. Once you submit your form, you’ll be able to pay your enrollment deposit via your admitted student portal. If you don’t plan to enroll at URI, you can also let us know that through the form. 
  • Log into your admitted student portal to pay your deposit (NOT required for Talent Development Scholars). After you complete the form, you can pay your enrollment deposit by clicking the link in the checklist in your portal.
    • An enrollment deposit confirms your intent to attend URI. The deposit is $300 for commuters or $500 if you plan to live in a residence hall.
    • Be sure to share your excitement by using #InAtURI on social media.

STEPS TO COMPLETE AFTER YOU HAVE PAID YOUR DEPOSIT

SET UP ACCOUNTS AND LOG-IN

  • Set-up your eCampus account.
    Note: Students must complete this step before proceeding to the next steps. 
    After you make your deposit and receive your URI ID number, you should set up your eCampus account through the eCampus registration system. You’ll need to enter your first name, last name, and student ID number. You’ll then receive a username and create an eCampus password — keep these somewhere safe!
  • Activate Your Single Sign-On (SSO).
    For most students, 1-2 business days after you pay your deposit and set up your eCampus account, your Single Sign On (SSO) and e-mail account will be active, but you must set up your Single Sign-On (SSO) passwordto complete the process. Your URI SSO gives you convenient, secure access to many URI applications — so don’t forget this step!
    • Once complete, you can start using your new URI SSO to access all of your key programs and systems. These include, but are not limited to, your URI Gmail account, Microsoft tools, and Brightspace.
  • Access URI Email: After setting up your SSO, you can go to gmail.com and log in with your URI SSO credentials to start using your URI email and all of our key programs and systems.
  • Complete your Student Financial Responsibility Agreement. This step is mandatory for all URI students. The agreement clearly explains our policies related to e-billing, late payment penalties, contact methods, etc.  You will need to log in to eCampus and follow the steps provided.
  • Contact the IT Service desk if you have questions or need assistance.
