    • For Winter 2022-2023 or Spring 2023, file the 2022-2023 FAFSA ASAP! 
  3. Personal Financial Counseling is Available! Just call us and we’ll arrange a virtual or in-person meeting to help you to understand everything from completing the FAFSA to developing a financial plan unique to your circumstances.
  4. What should you expect as a Bryn Athyn student? We’ll prepare you in unique ways to make a real impact on the world, through our majors and core requirements, and through our mission as the nation's only New Church college.

Sign up for Orientation and RegistrationStudents 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.

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: in July. 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. Preferred payment date: Two weeks before the start of the term.

For students living on campus: See "Resident Student" next steps below, including Housing Security Deposit, Roommate questionnaire, and packing list suggestions.

Many doctors’ offices schedule appointments several weeks or even months in advance. Students who are unable to schedule an appointment before the June 15th deadline could instead contact their current physician’s office and ask the office to fill in the immunization history on Bryn Athyn College’s medical form. Physicians’ offices are usually able to do this in less than a week. Once the immunization information is entered on the form by the physician’s office a student may use a service such as a “CVS Minute Clinic” to complete the remaining physician’s portion of the medical form. The cost for this service at a minute clinic or similar service is usually in the range of 50-80 dollars.
