Once you have started your application, login information for your IU Portal will be sent by email within 2 to 3 business days. From the IU Portal, you will be able to check the status of your application and review the checklist items you need to complete. If any checklist items are listed as required, your application will not be further reviewed until those items are received. After your items are received, it may take up to four weeks for them to be updated in your checklist. Please be patient and check back frequently.

Your university ID number will be listed in your IU Portal. Use your university ID number to create your IU computing account, which you will use for other important tasks during your admission process, including direct admission review requests.

If admitted, you can access your detailed Transfer Credit Report approximately two to three weeks after admission through the “Transfer Credits” app in One.IU.
