Activate Your Bryn Athyn Email Account: Shortly after you deposit, we’ll set up your account and send you instructions to
activate it. We will begin communicating with you through your Bryn Athyn email account
about orientation and registration requirements soon.
Sign up for Orientation and Registration: Students enrolling in the Winter and Spring terms: orientation takes place just before
the start of classes. Fall students: New Student Sessions (summer orientation) for the fall term will take place over the summer, and will be followed by an individual
advising meeting with your academic advisor. Welcome Week (pre-classes orientation) will take place just before classes begin. The Advising Office will send details
in June.
Placement Exams:
- Writing: Students with SAT Reading scores below 450 are automatically enrolled in Writing
100 and must pass Writing 100 before taking Writing 101. All admitted students who
do not submit SAT readings scores will be given a voucher from the admissions office
to take an online WritePlacer assessment, which must be completed before course registration
to ensure appropriate course placement.
- Mathematics: Students with SAT Math scores below 500 must take Math101. In some cases, students
may be encouraged by their advisor or the math department to take Math095 in preparation
for Math101. Students may bypass Math101 if they have SAT Math scores of at least
500, have transferred in a course that is counted at the 100 level or higher (Math1xx),
or have a sufficient score from the in-house math placement test. If SAT scores have
not been submitted, the in-house math placement test is required before registration.
Send us your final transcript: Official transcripts of all high school and college work in progress at the time
of your admission, including certification of any diplomas, must be received so that
we may confirm your enrollment in the fall. Deadlines: Winter term: November 15; Spring term: March 1; Fall term: August 1
Finalize your financial plan: If you are receiving financial aid, the Financial Aid Office may request additional
information from you. Please review your financial aid award letter and checklist
on your student portal. After you receive your bill, the bursar will work with you
to establish a payment plan for any portion of your bill not covered by financial
aid.
Pay your first term bill: Your term bill will be sent as follows:
- Fall students: Before July 31, 2025
- Winter students: your term bill will be sent in early November;
- Spring students: Early March.
Your bill will reflect all financial aid and scholarships you’ve received. You can even set
up a convenient 10-month payment plan. The bursar will work with you to ensure your
financial arrangements are in place in time to pay your bill.
Payment Due Date: Two weeks before the start of the term.
