Hey everyone...I've been lurking around SDN for a few months and haven't posted yet. I was accepted at IU in December!! Yay. What's all this about an email account?? I haven't heard anything from them about an email, and they've been sending financial information to my regular email account. Have I missed something??
Anyway, congratulations to everyone on their acceptances.
Here's a copy of the email:
Dear Class Member of 2011,
Welcome to the Indiana University School of Medicines Class of 2011. This is the first of several e-mail messages that you will receive from the Deans Office for Medical Student Affairs prior to the start of classes. The purpose of this message is to make sure that you have access to both an IUPUI email address and to OneStart (
https://onestart.iu.edu). Regardless of your campus assignment, all students must have an active email address on the IUPUI campus. This address is what is used to set up the Class of 2011 listserv.
Please find the category in which you fit and follow the instructions:
Entering students without an active IU account (any campus) - If you do not have an active email address on any of the IU campuses, please access the Universitys Account Management System (AMS) website at
http://itaccounts.iu.edu/ as soon as possible. To create this account, you will need to enter your last name, date of birth, and your ten digit university ID. If you do not know your ten digit university ID, then follow the link provided in the AMS system as highlighted below.
If for some reason you follow the above link and still have difficulty in obtaining your ten digit university ID, please contact Marti Reeser at (317) 278-8628 or send him a message at
[email protected]. You can contact Jose Espada for the ID as well at
[email protected]
Entering students with active iupui.edu accounts - If you currently have an active email account on the IUPUI campus, please contact Mary Beth Nance at (317) 274-7163 or
[email protected]. It is important to make sure that the account is set up properly so that you will not have problems in receiving messages sent to the class listserv.
Entering students with active indiana.edu or other IU campus accounts - If you are a student currently enrolled at any other IU campus or have an account active on an IU campus; you still need to create an IUPUI email address. This is true regardless of you IU Medical Center assignment. To open this email account, access the IT Accounts website at
http://itaccounts.iu.edu/ and click on the Manage my IU computing accounts link. After accessing that site, click on the create more accounts: option. At this point, select the Cyrus account and click on the Create Account button. After activating your IUPUI email address, you must contact Mary Beth Nance at (317) 274-7163 or
[email protected]. It is very important that students with multiple accounts in the IU system have the mail forwarding option set up correctly to ensure that messages sent to any of the active email accounts are properly routed. This will also ensure that you do not miss any important messages sent to the class listserv.
For those creating a new account, using the Universitys AMS will automatically set up your IUPUI e-mail address. Your IUPUI e-mail address will be the official address for the IU School of Medicine for all correspondence. Note that regardless of your IU Medical Center assignment, you must have an active IUPUI account. The same username and pass-phrase will also allow you to access the OneStart portal (
https://onestart.iu.edu). Logging on to OneStart allows you to access important information such as your financial aid award and your University account statement.
PLEASE ACTIVATE YOUR UNIVERSITY ACCOUNT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
If you have any other questions about setting up your university account, please contact Mary Beth Nance at
[email protected] or (317) 274-7163.
White Coat Ceremony and Orientation
In early June, we will send another message directing you to ANGEL, the School of Medicines online course management system, where information regarding White Coat Ceremony and Orientation will be available. Attendance at these programs, scheduled for August 10-11, is required. If you have any questions regarding the White Coat Ceremony and/or Orientation please contact Carlene Webb-Burton at
[email protected], (317) 274-7173.
Course Registration and Financial Aid
Finally, the Medical Student Affairs Office will not register you for fall courses until late July or early August. Bills for the fall term, will tentatively go out in mid to late August and carry an early September due date. Additional information regarding registration and financial aid will be sent out in later messages.
We look forward to seeing you in August.
