Complete these important steps before arriving on campus.

Step 1: Confirm your Enrollment
Confirm your enrollment. Confirming your enrollment is the next step in becoming a UMD Bulldog. After you pay the non-refundable confirmation fee, you can select your registration date.
Make sure you have the following items on hand to confirm your intent to enroll:
- Student ID Number: this is found on your admission letter from UMD.
- Credit Card: using a credit card is the easiest way to pay the non-refundable confirmation fee.
- Schedule: it’s best to know your availability before selecting a session.

Step 2: Financial Aid
Complete your FAFSA and have the information sent to UMD (Federal School Code: 002388). We understand that incoming students and their families will have questions regarding their financial aid. A helpful resource page is available to assist you. If you can't find what you're looking for there, our staff at One Stop Student Services would be delighted to assist you. Email us at [email protected] or call 218-726-8000.
Virtual Financial Aid Appointments
These 30-minute financial aid appointments, designed for admitted seniors and their families, are created to meet you where you are in the process, help you navigate the FAFSA, explain estimated financial aid offers, explore financial aid resources that are available, and answer any questions you might have.
